I disagree... Microsoft is anything but evil. I love them as they are easy to work with, easy to write for, and for the most part it works... I must admit I've become somewhat of a Mac guy over the past 3 years and I've learned how nice Microsoft is compared to Apple, and Apple is suppose to be so flipping great and easy. 1) My Mac locks up all the time 2) iTunes DRM is a joke. I buy it but I don't own it and I can only have 5 machines on it and if I don't deactivate I have to beg them. 3) iPhone.. shall I go into what it takes to be an iPhone developer? You have to pay and then if the gods at Apple "allow" you then you can sell iPhone apps. Microsoft does not do this... 4) Lies... Apple commercials are flat out mistruths... period. So, I will take Microsoft any day. They are truly, for a company their size and power, the easiest to work with, use, and support!!!! Now if Google becomes the 'standard' then I hope they overcome the problems we have with them. I mean, if I have problems with my site on the Google search who do I call? I can't... but when BMW was blacklisted for breaking serious SEO rules they just called Google and they were back on in minutes.. I can't do that.. nor can any of you, unless you work for some mega company. To me that is evil... Microsoft IS NOT! Douglas A.
