Okay, so Microsoft is finally getting punished! Woohoo!
But wait... they own 600 million to Europe. Where will they get that money from? Well, I'm not buying a MS product, so probably from charging the United States government $3500 per Windows 2010 license, monthly. So basically your U.S. tax dollars will be sent to Europe. Woohoo!
It's like that whole cigarette fine. You need to pay millions of dollars because you sold dangerous cigarettes, and the best way to raise millions of dollars is to sell more cigarettes.
Here in Northern VA, we've the worst traffic anywhere. People talk on the phone so they have something to do besides sit still.
I'd thought that the dept of transportation was waiting for telecommuting, 'cause they ain't building any more roads.
It seems that this will let us sit in traffic for 4 hours, continue to do work; and then turn around and sit in traffic for 4 more working hours. An eight-hour day of production in traffic!
