So all of your don't ignore MS and dig deep, remember how important our noggins are to geeks and nerds. Thanks to you for your M$ paranoia, it gives me the opportunity to promote worthwhile charities, only happens about once a year. Some silly anal retentive type has to spout off and a bunch of modders from a particular company join in (there I used M$ five times including this are you happy yet?).

For me MS stands for http://www.msaustralia.org.au/, http://www.mssociety.org.uk/, http://mssociety.ca/en/ and http://www.nationalmssociety.org/index.aspx, and will always do so. Also the $ was well known and specific use in M$ languages which is part of why the M$ came about so no not just the greed. So don't forget those societies at this time of year or at any other and dig deep after all for us geek and nerds our minds are pretty much everything. So suck it up 12 year old douchebag ;P (and thanks for enabling me to promote them at this time of year it's been quite some time since the last anal retentive type called me up on M$).

Yet all those young still don't get it. Plus of course MS was always reserved for http://www.msaustralia.org.au/, http://www.mssociety.org.uk/, http://mssociety.ca/en/ and even http://www.nationalmssociety.org/index.aspx. They spent up big in the 70s and 80s promoting funding for research into multiple sclerosis 'MS', for a condition that affects the brain, something really important to geeks and nerds. So M$ is Microsoft and MSN is Microsoft Networks but MS is multiple sclerosis.

MS is reserved for http://www.msaustralia.org.au/, http://mssociety.ca/en/, http://www.mssociety.org.uk/ and http://www.nationalmssociety.org/index.aspx. Get over it already. M$ is for for the whiney softies and MS is for multiple sclerosis. Not that I mind the complaints because every time I see it it gives me the opportunity to promote organisation that are of direct interest to geeks and nerds due the impact of the disease upon our most valuable asset our minds.

So M$ and MSN are the same company (although they should really break up in order to give MSN a creative surge).

As for M$ banning the purchase of Apple products with company funds, it's only logical and really doesn't even rate a mention. In fact M$ should pretty much demand free product from Apple in order to continue development of M$ Software for Apple products. You know, straight up demand, Dear Apple you will supply 25 million dollars worth of Apple hardware (servers, desktops, phones, tablets, operating system) per annum or efforts to develop software for the base will cease and that whilst harsh is logical and acceptable.

M$ should not pay for Apple hardware or software in order to spend more money to develop software for it in order to 'LOSE SALES'.

I can't really understand why M$ marketdroids get so bent out of shape, especially considering the importance of the $ symbol in M$ basic, the use of $ in M$ is far more subtle the M$ marketdroids could ever understand (I tried to use M$ as much as possible in this comment are you eyes bleeding yet ;D ).

You can't seem to grap it is all about perception, it is about the ability of some companies to affect market share of other companies, it is about using dominant market position to further extend market potential and it is about overall product range.

So M$ is in a weak and dangerous legal position. It was fairly easy for a competitor to prove harm over and extended time and, obviously if they are losing market share it provides a quick dirty means by which to recover lost profits and to further tarnish M$'s reputation.

I will always use M$ because every single time some M$ flinkie complains it gives me the opportunity to do this. MS stands for http://www.msaustralia.org.au/ or http://mssociety.ca/en/ or http://www.mssociety.org.uk/ or http://www.nationalmssociety.org/index.aspx. This of course is of special interest to computer geeks and nerds as multiple sclerosis is a degenerative diesease of what gives our group our identity, our minds. So consider donating and ignore the whiny M$ trolls.

MS http://www.msaustralia.org.au/, get over it already but, don;t get me wrong, I have no problem with pointing it out time and time again and of course http://www.mssociety.org.uk/ , http://mssociety.ca/en/ or http://www.msassociation.org/ (oh look they have chickened out in the US, I wonder why). Suck it up ass hat and give generously, as a geek/nerd MS should be in your thoughts lest it end up in your mind

Just for you M$, M$, M$, oh the humanity (if you had any idea of history you would also know what the $ plays in the history of M$ Basic)..

You also obviously do no coding and have no idea where the $ use comes from in M$ basic. Also I restrict the use of MS for http://www.msaustralia.org.au/ a charitable organisation that has my full support (I even spent three months diagnosed with the condition turned out just to be a bruised spinal cord). What can I say but get over it dickwad and go here http://www.mssociety.org.uk/ and donate if you really into the pound symbol but if your just a US M$ marketdroid then go here http://www.nationalmssociety.org/index.aspx and donate.

Um, no it doesn't.

The K in KDE does not stand for anything. It is the character that comes before L in the Latin alphabet, which stands for Linux. It was chosen because KDE runs on many types of UNIX (and perfectly well on FreeBSD). "
