i presume this was copied to this list as a news item,correct?
anyway, i am as much a ms detractor as anyone, or have been. but recently i
became aware of the theft from ms. pirated software. not just users in
america, but all over the world, india,china,japan,taiwan, great britain,
russia...everywhere. in america, there are the techs the hackers the
users.....and businesses, and......the goverment.
i understand some dept was using novell software and invited ms in to compare
it, whereupon ms discovered the amount of pirated ms software in use by the
us goverment and thereby got the depts bizness as the amount required to pay
for all the software stolen was astronomical. os and word and excell and etc
etc
hm. gates is richest in the world. ms is wonderful on the stock market.
millions use its software and thousands get paychecks from it directly. many
many more get jobs related to it, mcse 's etc........and it is ripped off to
the tune of billions all over the earth......where else is american bizness
so strong or so stolen from? what else is powering industry and producing
jobs in america?
dell recently moved much of its tech support to india.
many businesses are moving to canada, socialized med seems to make it far
cheaper as well as lower biz taxes,
etc etc
but ms is here.
so, i hate the same things re os software as were mentioned in this article,
vehemently, but ms is at the moment as patriotic a company in effect as i
know, and
the most successful.
so i thot id add these thots to that article.
thanks.
