Hmmmmm, even better. Microsoft products are *far* better than anything that the crappy unix and open source communitys could produce. I would of course use Microsoft products exclusively but as I am poor I can't afford to buy this superior software so am stuck with these crap open source things. I would really like to use Microsoft as the applications and capabilitys of the systems far exceed that of *any* other companys products ever....
You have a point, why should we spend nothing on software when we can get poorer more unreliable software for hundreds of more poundscomplete with customer lock in and some reaaly nice bugs to cost us for all that lost work!
Microsoft products are so shite its unbeleivable. They cost me heavily in time and money and I find they are useless compared to the alternatives - MaxOS, freebsd, openbsd, Linux, Solaris!
Also see my T-shirt suggestion on geekshirts.sourceforge.net, What has microsoft ever done for us?
I am now looking at openbsd as my main system!
Thanks
