I like Microsoft.

Really my kind of business.
American.
Arrogant.
Awesome.
Big R&D investments
Bill Gates vision = My vision.


I love the Xbox products, it fulfills my gamer-side. Before it was Sega and Nintendo (80's and 90's), now it's Microsoft.
I have 2 Microsoft Zune players.
I have Windows Vista (on my laptop) and Windows XP.
I use Live Messenger everyday, keeping touch with my friend (Sorry ICQ, Microsoft did it again [total takeover]).

I can't wait for Windows Se7en. Never been as excited before for an OS, last time it was before Windows95 launch day.
And Microsoft Surface, amazing.

I also have:
- Microsoft Reclusa Razer Keyboard
- Microsoft BlueTrack Mouse (wonderful new technology)
- Microsoft Windows CE in my Sega Dreamcast.
- Windows Mobile in my Samsung Cell.

But don't get me wrong,
I also have a PS3, an iPod nano and I use Firefox.

Die Hard Microsoft fans? I'd love to be.

I know it's "trendy" to hate Microsoft. It always been. People doesn't like Giants and Microsoft is not for everyone.

But Microsoft is in everyone's life.

Every educated people on earth has touch one of these: Word, Excel, Windows, Windows Mobile in most Cellphones, Powerpoint, Hotmail, Microsoft Sync in Ford vehicles, Xbox, ASP, MSN (Live Messenger), name it...)

No other company has done this before.

 

This is the humor post of 2009.  Maybe you are more loyal than Bill Gates himself.

 

About MS.  I don't like them too much.  I'm glad to see them facing more competition from companies like Apple, Google, and Nintendo (yes, they are competing with MS).  I've had many problems dealing with their customer service and Windows ME left a permanent scar.  Vista is actually ok now, but it looks like they are abandoning that now.

 

Also, I don't see how a MS controlled gaming industry would be any different than other industries they control.  I really don't want online activation of games, accessories that cost 1/2 the console cost (wait, that's already happening), products of mediocre quality standard forced into the consumers' hands, etc (It took 1.5 years for MS to come clean about the hardware problems).

 

Also, I never cared for Gears and Halo.  Both are good, but not the second coming even to other shooters.  It seems MS fans have to like those games to be considered part of the team.  Sony fans usually have different games that they like, and I just feel more part of that group.
