Nice one. A terribly-flawed leader is put off by a just-as-equally-flawed OS software.
He will not find his plans because the plans JUST WONT SHOW UP ON HIS DESKTOP.

It makes them feel better, I guess. Pretending there won't be a real nuclear threat.

Unfortunately, it's just a joke.
It would have been better if they would have worked it a little better to include Microsoft's pushing of their new licensing model. For instance - if you want to use Microsoft Server Seven - you can. You just have to buy Microsoft Server Eight and downgrade for free from Microsoft. This is because Server Eight's licensing policy is based on the number of CPUs used (the joke's on them - a lot of effort is being put into Open CL server functions that distribute that nonsense to GPUs).
But I really do wonder how long it's going to be before Microsoft releases a patch for all Desktop version of Windows Eight... reverting them back to a functional Windows Seven.
Sure - it's cute on a tablet, or something (though I still believe the metro UI is largely garbage... apps that change their icon based on content is a good way to ensure I never know what the hell I'm looking for... sure - having a screen or two that I can pan between that show me relevant information at a glance without having to mess with different full-screen apps is neat... but Android got it right with their implementation when it comes to stuff like that) - but it's completely broken for a desktop. I know Microsoft is kind of jumping ship from the PC - but I think that's a huge mistake. Tablets and mobile devices are enjoying a surge of interest and market share - but that's going to swing back the other direction. Kids are going to start trying to actually do shit with those tablets (rather than simply dicking around on twitter and youtube) and realize that it's an exercise in futility. That's when PCs (of the desktop and laptop variety) will enjoy a come-back.
Mobile devices aren't a "fad" - but it will become apparent that the entire premise currently lacks a productive interface. It's great for checking weather, doing light browsing, "I'm bored and have to be here" games, and some of those sorts of things. It's not effective when you need to punch out serious typing, graphical work, and other developmental tasks.
But I'm kind of getting off on a tangent, here.
Kim Jong Un really needs to have a gun barrel stuck in his mouth.

KJU is the Rosey O'Donnell of world leaders. The only reason people notice they exist is because they try to talk shit to everybody and embarrass themselves.
Its kinda sad when you think about it.

I did like the "North Korea is working with Microsoft Customer Support to resolve the issue."
That's how much Microsoft hates us. Not only do they produce Window Eight (deliberate lack of plurality) - but they also endeavor to make it function for entities that blatantly wish to destroy much of the modern world.
I was actually hoping Window Eight was a way too early April Fool's joke. "Nah, just kidding - here's the real Windows Eight... had you all there for a minute, though, didn't we?"
I remember I was like that with C&C4 ... the release time was just right for it, too.
