Windows (more so Windows 7) says it all.

As for Rolex that is a shock.

Almost everyone uses Windows.

Anyone has access to BBC, google etc.,

How many people have access to the cash to purchase a Rolex watch? And will pay for a Rolex watch when that money can buy something else?


it is about brand recognition and respect... not about what you can afford or have.

Wrong. It is based on 2,000 people (and some experts) opinion on three criteria:

quality, reliability and distinction.

You don't have to respect a company to give it full marks on each. You just need to be honest and not bias.

MS deserves it because of where they have taken Windows and Office.

2010 Hardware Sales Predictions

Wii: 20m- Sales will drop, but not by much.

PS3: 13.5m- It sold 12m in 2009, its only common sense it will sell more this year.

Xbox 360: 11m- It sold 11m in 2008 and 2009, I think it will sell the same.

My Fanboy Speech...

Why do you have to make excuses to defend a product that you purchased, but that's the only connection you have to it, you don't make it, you don't lose or gain money on it. I don't see where all of the defensiveness comes in, there is no reason for you or anybody else to feel obligated to defend it. Now I would understand if one of you were a developer for the product and you slaved over said product only to hear somebody call it stupid or a piece of junk. But none of you developed it, none of you are mature enough to realize that. Choosing a product all comes down to preference, you chose said product because it is best for you. Simple as that!

Wow...surprising...Guess M$'s got it mojo back.
