Copying ideas is not the worst thing MS has done.

The post above me (scruffybunny) gave a lot reasons why MS should not been respected, but the worse clearly being how they make business crushing competition.

If you're interested, read the (old) Roberto Di Cosmo's book about it : Hijacking the world, the dark side of Microsoft

Whats the difference between Sony and Microsoft? The overall success they have had at being assholes. Just because Sony aren't as good at being assholes doesn't mean they wouldn't have acted exactly the same in exactly the same position.

Quite ironic since you're as much a PS3 advertisement as anything else here.

I know you didn't specifically bring up Sony as well, but your singature brings me into it.

fixed

it looks like you are the MS counter advertissement to me ...

can't you just answer to his argue ?

oh, wait, you dont have any point to prove here because you completely agree with his point, right ?
