Yeah and the difference between undesirable and undesireable is a single "e", but at the same time it is just a typo that doesn't change the word, just makes it misspelled. I could care less if someone misses a single typo in a OS.
"know idea", is this some kind of misspelling/bad grammar party?
Incidentally if you make a typo in the sourcecode you might have situations where it's more than simply getting frowns from a 'spelling nazi' when you compiled it.

A company should take some more pride in their work and spell check everything, even these mundane dialog boxes.
Sony's just released a 15.5-inch addition to its VAIO S Series that not only adds a crucial bit of extra display acreage, but also bumps things up to a full 1080p.

Hey, at least I wasn't condoning anyone who misspells the little things. Then I'd be a hypocrite.
@Kieran
Oh no Americans! Everyone knows Americans are the devil!
Er, "applicaton" appears to be missing a letter, too?
I take it you have know idea what "condoning" means. My guess is you meant condemning,
