Gates on Spyware and OS Competition
Ant writes "CNET's News.com has an article that says Microsoft plans to offer its own anti-spyware software." prostoalex writes "Both OsNews and InfoWorld talk about Bill Gates' speech at the Computer History Museum in California. Gates is noting that Linux is taking over, and claims that 10 years forward Linux and Windows will be the only OSs left in the market."

Your hair look like poop, Bob! - Wanker.
If you had scripting diabled, you wouldn't have had this problem.

"which along with the usual imagery also causes my Firefox to spaz around the screen effectively requireing a crash out of Firefox to end."
I was using tabbed-browsing at the time. A simple Ctrl+F4 (close tab) and the killing of a couple of spawned windows recovered my session fairly easily.

This statement is forty-five characters long.
Could you imagine A REAL PRESIDENT (BUSH DOES NOT COUNT). Saying something like this?? If we put great policies in place, why would we need our tallented millitary to enforce them?? Thats like (scratching head) "lets just drop an A-bomb and get it done. Therefore, why would we need ground troops to fight? Forget the rammifications of our actions. Our resolve is great and absolute. No need to have the tallent and intelligence to back it up.. It's the final measure, the only measure, and the best measure.. After this look at all the money we can save by not sending in the troops, the cleanup's and the loss of OUR lives.. " Verry powerful application of Bills statement in a real world situation. Ya, sure it makes sense.. RRIGHT. Not.. Gk.

It's javascript. Stop letting pages move your windows around.
I didn't get any spawned windows. I just closed the tab. (firefox 0.9.2 on XP)

Pretty sad world we live in when nobody takes anybody at their word.
Hello! We are talking about a known troll with high uid who has just made up some lame story for karma whoring! "I can't tell you anything, NDA, blah blah blah, but I worked for MS and they suck, they beg me but I refuse to work there!" Moderated from Score:-1 (because this troll has negative karma) to Score:5 in no time. Yeah, right! Do you honestly believe in any shit you read on Slashdot?! YHBT. YHL. HAND. Get over it.
Sorry, Slashdot ate my markup in the last post... This is important message:
ALERT!!! Parent is a TROLL who is a KARMA WHORE!!!
Before I worked at Microsoft [...] Oh how I wish I could comment on specifics. Damn NDA.
Riiight... Are we supposed to believe a known troll with high uid in another one of his karma-whoring bullshit?!
When they made me an offer to join after my senior year (this year), I turned it down. I just can't deal with companies that are too laden in management and politics to even attempt agility and quality of work.
Though it was definitely sure that such a post just had to be moderated as Score:5 with the pathetic anti-MS pseudo-intelectual Slashdot agenda. You fucking karma whore!!!!
