Now, I'm scratching my head wondering how this thread turned into flame.

It is quite simple. Never, EVER suggest to ssj12 that Microsoft could do anything REMOTELY right when it comes to software.

I never said that all their software is complete trash. the office suite is good... err.. windows media player is decent. Your argument was basically that Microsoft can't do no wrong when it comes to software. I proved out you wrong.

 

sadly, I programmed my own word processor before and there are other media palyers that support more. Like i said its about what programmers you have on hand. For the major software M$ sucks, plain and simple. This is why it took 3 service packs to make XP or what XP really stands for Xtreme Performance what they originally promised.

But your completely missing what we are discussing.  We are not talking about media players, we are not talking about windows, we are not talking about word processors.

What we are talking about is the OS's of the PS3 and the 360.  As you pointed out, Sony can hire programmers, MS has even more money to hire exactly the same people.  For you to make a blanked statement to the effect of "MS developers suck" is complete crap.  They are highly capable, what limits them is the corporate nature of Microsoft.

At the end of the day, Microsoft has far more in-house software development resources and know-how than Sony does.

End of debate.
