I think you guys are being a tad bit hard on the fellow as you've
centered on just tiny a aspect of his post.

In his first sentence he did capitalize "I", "Electronic Labs" and gave
the relevant error message info.  So, he isn't lazy.  Also, he didn't
write "I tried to install X and it didn't work.  What should I do?". 

AFAICT, he committed the "horrible" act of not capitalizing "can" and
reverted to cell phone texting style and wrote "sum1".  (Proper English
would have been "some1"?).

Did he really deserve to be called out on such minor transgressions when
others have done far worse?

Now, I could see your getting upset with what seems to be his obsession
with Crickets....  :-)
