Lessee here:
1. Vista is a complete flop (despite the bloated sales-figured Ballmer lies about).
2. Ballmer’s making cryptic, talking-out-his-ass type statements about how Microsoft has evidence of patent infringement by Linux, but never actually ponies up. (Nobody else actually gives a shit anymore.)
3. The FLOSS (Free-Libre-Opensource) scene is exploding outward at a staggering rate (in the REAL world of private citizens and business, at least.)
4. Micro$uck has become the favored target for lawsuits (admittedly just “peck peck pecking” at the edges, but pirana can strip a horse in ten minutes.)
5. Dell (a “major name” in home computers) has broken ranks on TWO counts — reverting to XP, and offering stock systems preloaded with Ubuntu Linux (in response to “significant” customer demand, mind you.)
6. EVERYBODY — even those who like their “products” — hates Micro$hit. The (deserved) penalty for use of WinDoze bugware shit is viruses, trojans, spyware, horrible instability and their newest “feature” — your computer reduced to a ‘telescreen’ from Orwell’s 1984 (they ‘allow’ you to do stuff, rather than the other way around.)
And now, they aquire an ad agency. And?
The desperate, pathetic farce known as MicroSoft — nothing but an empty shell. Yeah, they’re still rich. But the point is, they’re TOTALLY IRRELEVANT. Why does anybody actually think their antics are even interesting anymore?
