LaCie SilverKeeper warning dialog. Wha?I’ve witnessed a load of questionably designed and inadequately proofread dialog boxes in my travels. But I’m at a complete lost on where to start with this one that popped up in front of me this morning while wrestling with LaCie’s SilverKeeper backup utility.

There are a lot of benefits to off-shore software development. This is not an example of any of them.
