Hm. It's not like I hate Microsoft and if they came along with a really good product that I wanted, I wouldn't hesitate to buy it.

On the other hand, I'd happily leap from Windows to Linux if it wasn't for gaming and I'd have little problem dropping Office for a freeware solution. I don't really like the constant rebranding, consolidating, and splitting Microsoft does. I don't like a lot of the business tactics they've used over the years, either. I do, however, like Microsoft more than Apple.

As for Microsoft products I've owned, it's been all software. I was forced to buy Office by the school, which annoyed the hell out of me, but at least there was a major discount involved.

I don't think any of their physical products interest me much in general.
