Listen up, and listen well.
Ok. I doubt you'll like my responses any better than anyone else's, though:)
You god damn Linux zealots make me SICK.
Here, have an airsickness bag, then.;)
I work for Microsoft as a developer...
I'm sorry...you must be sorely overworked. Maybe if the Company would let you take regular time off for sleep, windows would be more stable?
and I really resent the fact that I and my coworkers are being called thieves.
My view is that it's the employer, rather than any of the employees that is a thief, but that's neither here nor there.
We work hard on developing quality,
*boot windows, get online, play a game* "ack! BSoD! now I have to start the playoffs over again!" *reboot, surf web to vent frustration, IE causes kernel error* *beat side of monitor in frustration* "stupid IE! why can't you look at a website without crashing! grrr!" *reboot to linux, no crashes* "ahhh, much nicer"
quality implies reliability, er, stability:P...innovative products here at Microsoft.....
hmm....didn't I see that new icon-shadow-thingy win2k has in AmigaOS? how....innovative. it *looks* nice, but how does it add to the functionality?
and sorry but the odd time I have looked at Linux source code to get a better idea of how to come up with
innovation solutions in Windows 2000 does *not* make me a thief!!
"you can look, but you can't touch"....I'm not *entirely* sure how the GPL works, but I know using copyrighted material w/o giving proper credit is considered theft
I wish you pimply-faced teenagers would take your 1960's-era piece of crap toy shareware so-called Operating System and shove it!
pimply-faced? hardly. I very nearly got a job as a model/actor, but had to turn it down due to personal business I had to take care of. and teenager? after serving in the Army? I doubt it, unless I graduated HS a few years early. I might even be older than you. I know I'm definitely more mature, if your post is anything to judge by. More rational, at least.
Just stop sullying the reputation of my fine employer. We are having enough problems without you faggots making things worse.
Ok, first off, M$ has sullied its own reputation. I'm sure they have a *great* health care plan and all, but that's irrelevant to the facts of events (and legal battles) surrounding M$. As for me being a faggot, sorry, but I *much* prefer women. Does that mean I'm a lesbian? *checks self* nope, I'm a guy. guess that means I'm straight:)
