    Wow I haven't thought of Hiren's in over a decade. I used to use it daily back in my desktop support days working with XP. Very interesting to see a new version.

    Trump has created 515 businesses and only 11 of them failed. That's a 98.64% success rate. He has a better track record than Elon Musk by an order of magnitude.
