A Letter to Microsoft

Mr. Gates,

I realize that your engineers are probably all working on the disaster that was Microsoft Vista, but when you get a moment, I have a request. Microsoft Internet Explorer has a feature called "Favorites" and I would like you to please change this. I believe this is a misnomer. You see, everytime I have to go to that tab to go to Qbank to practice more USMLE Step 1 questions, and inevitably be reminded that I might forever be an M2, I cringe at the thought of calling this website a "favorite." It is far from it. It is a nemesis. A bane in my very existence, albeit only for another week (fingers crossed.) In conclusion, I would like to recommend the name "Frequently Visited Websites" as an alternative. Thank you.

Sincerely,
A Stressed Out Medical Student
