Miguel's fantasies

[A nonymous Coward]

The more he slides under Microsoft's spell, the more I distrust his pronouncements. It's as if he thinks he alone has discovered the magic potion that will allow him to befriend Microsoft with groveling and flattery such that they will actually respect him and not pull the rug out from under him. Why he should be the one exception in all their history is beyond me.

I have pretty much come to the conclusion that if Miguel says it is so, it ain't.
