What the hell? By that logic every company is marketing company and nothing more.
Company that makes a product, tries to sell it, outrageous! Call the press!

Microsoft really wants people to upgrade to Windows 10.
People still love Windows 7 though, so they must've thought "we need a 7 somewhere!"
And here you have it. You and I, techies, know it makes no sense, but we're techies and we'll want to upgrade anyway.
The majority of the people have no idea though, and all they hear is "Windows 10 comes in 7 different flavors"!
That's the most logical explanation I could come up with...

They could market it as Windows 7+3

I've never met you, don't know what you do and haven't clicked on the link yet.
I also think you are better than any marketing Microsoft has to offer.
I'm retired. There's a nap for that...

If you write the name of someone you hate on your own body every day, then if you die - no matter how - they will be a suspect...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

You can also write the name of someone you hate on someone elses body and then..

So how many names are there written on your body? You can round it to the nearest 10 if you like.

I would not blame Windows or Microsoft Office for this. They are still in beta. You know what type of software is in beta. The one that doesn't run, but we still want to share the executable.

Since memory only constitutes part of the System Resources, articles like the following come to mind:

"When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they didn't understand life." - John Lennon

Good point, although I haven't run into a legitimate case of resource exhaustion since pre-Windows NT.
As it turns out, what the error actually meant is, Internet Explorer could not directly open this file type from a Sharepoint site, so download and open the file manually.

As annoying as it is, better they err on the side of caution, though a quick call or text to you might have prevented the payment being stopped.

Well, that, and because they are cracking down on criminal activities. I'm surprised you dare show your white kitty stroking self here. You tried passing yourself off as that nice Donald Pleasance, or Max Von Sydow or Telly Savalas, but we're on to you Blofeld.
