Microsoft Slaps Its Most Valuable Professional

Posted by kdawson on from the schizophrenic-is-one-word-for-it dept.

Violent Offender writes with a touching story in The Register about Microsoft's awarding of its Most Valuable Professional credential to a British hobbyist, Jamie Cansdale, then turning around and threatening him with a lawsuit for the very software that won him the award. The article links to the amazing correspondence from Microsoft on Cansdale's site.
