i sin oändliga vishet

Explanation:
Användare av Windows XP löper störst risk att drabbas av dessa problem eftersom Microsoft i sin oändliga vishet funnit för gott att automatiskt aktivera Active Desktop från början.

Explanation:
Jag har svårt att förstå hur en vävilja kan vara allvetande, även om det står så på engelska. Det kan väl i egentligen bara människor vara?
