another stupid microsoft thing

Have you ever tried to set up two internet connections for your labtop? --Are you tired of changing between static IP address and DHCP?

Will, microsoft actually has this function. How to use it? -- This is the help page.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/283676

Follow this, can you find the "alternative configuration" tab??

If you are lucky, you will see it. But very likely you don't see it. --Why? Simple! It only shows up if you select DHCP (automatical). If you set a static IP etc., there is no alternative configuration tab.

Why? Ask Bill Gates. (Oh, I guess he's off the hook already. But sorry, we have to blame him.)
