Microsoft = hillarious!

Apparently our good friends at microsoft need better translators....

From HardOCP:

A Spanish-language version of Windows XP, destined for Latin American markets, asked users to select their gender between "not specified," "male" or "bitch," because of an unfortunate error in translation.

'unfortunate error' = 'god, i simultaneously hate my job at microsoft and can't believe the tremendous authority i have over the latin release of windows xp.'

I can only imagine the even more fun translation errors that are probably hidden deep within random help files...
