Microsoft doesn't recognize their own OS
I've got a new Windows Mobile smart phone. It's been crashing and freezing up a lot (no surprise, it's Windows). I thought MS might have Windows Update setup to show updates for Windows Mobile, so I fired up Internet Explorer on my phone and went to update.microsoft.com. This is the error message I got:
You'd think Microsoft's website would be smart enough to recognize this useragent as their own operating system:
HTC-8500/1.2 Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows CE; PPC; 240x320)

Perhaps because Windows Update doesn't support the Windows Mobile 5 OS? :)

Yes, I know that now. :) But my point is that Microsoft should at LEAST know that the machine I was using was one of theirs instead of a Mac, and tell me that Windows Update doesn't support Windows Mobile.
