Ok, so I guess the guy should have read he's contract and whether they had the right to sack him for a picture is one for the lawyers...and lets be honest, 'if you work for the devil, you're going to get burned!'
My concern with this story is the fact Microsoft knew about the personal blog...I assume this means they run a proactive program to find sites which mention Microsoft...seems a bit much...maybe they should be spending this time making sure their products work! Because they are obviously not at the moment.! (4 patches last week in one day)
And really, I would be grateful if they spent 10% of their grounds security on their product security (see patch comment in previous paragraph).
Although it is a nice thought that they are testing the Apple programmes...because they aren't the Windows ones!
I must admit the Microsoft products I did use on my Powerbook (IE and Outlook) where far superior to the Windows versions, in stability and capabilities...maybe they have the BT syndrome...they have so much a control they don't care...after all where are you going to go.
