Microsoft May Charge for Security Tools

Posted by michael on from the rated-r-for-racket dept.

rscrawford writes "CNN reports that Microsoft may charge extra for security software. So first they edge their competition out of the browser market, then they tie IE into the OS so tightly that a crash in IE can crash the computer, and then they make IE so vulnerable that just using it is hazardous to the typical computer's health, and now they want to CHARGE users to fix it?"

    "Coherant" isn't the best word for that situation. "obvious" would work a lot better.
    Also, try to work on adding in things like "the" and "it", and ownership.

    Like this: "Do you see? It is the end-user's fault that all of those security problems exist, so they must pay!" Is the correct way of wording that last line.

    What is your native language? I am trying to learn to see what language somebody uses by the mistakes made in their English.
