btw do you guys (Kowen and DirtyP) work with microsoft? or previously worked with them? i always see you guys very protective towards MS.


no... but i know a few that do/have.

I'm not overly protective of MS either, I just hate the false bullshit that gets thrown around.  MS = Evil, Sony = Good.  It's just bollocks mainly thrown around by teenage fanboys that dont know the first thing about business or life.


same here.

MS is attacked from left and right and most of the time they are totally wrong. Sure MS does make some mistakes (like RRoD) but people forget that they really created a lot of great things. People say MS is the one company that wants all your money, copies and loves to destroy competition. A lot of people forgot that they really saved Apple. Apple was broke, the company would not exist today without the help of MS. That is the reason why I am not a fan of the ads Apple is airing contra the PC and not pro Mac. Never forget where you are coming from.

A lot of cyber Che Guevaras just hate on MS, because they don't know better. MS wants to make money, but somehow this is a bad thing for MS and okay for every other company.

Look, this video will make some people think MS is a bad employer, but the reality is totally different. MS is one or the best employer you can imagine. Just check the links I posted. This is what I really don't like. I don't buy products because there is a MS brand on it.

 

Not again....

Microsoft DID not "SAVE" Apple.

This piece of misinformation comes around from time to time. This was in fact a part of settlement agreement due to Microsoft "borrowing" some code from quicktime and a long standing patent lawsuit on that issue.

The "mistake" was stealing the code that lead to this event, not the token $150M investment itself.
