that's like saying building a house without ever know how to use a hammer. sometime you need to learn both and sadly Adobe is what the industry use and sadly, no OSS tards such as yourself will ever understand it.
why do they need Steve Job? MS have alway targeting the Corps. It's their bulk of biz. If Steve Jobs were to run MS like the way he run Apple. MS won't be where it is today.
dude, shut the fuck up. you just fucking playing with words. if i created something, you do not have any rights to copy my works, period! stupid fuck! talking shits out of your ass trying to justifie theft. Why don't you work for free?
Can your company pay me $200k to clean up their pc? it's obvious that you work with dumbasses. At my company, we only have Trend Micro AV and none of our machines have any problems. If your Windows kung fu suck, please stick with Mac/Linux.
why not? MS is still the biggest commerical software company there is. whatever they plan to release will have an ripple effect on other software vendors. why do you think Symantec and McAfee are crying and moaning about Vista's security center and MS's AV software.
hummm...you said it yourself. you got hired based on your employer taking a chance on you not having a formal education. Google probably get 1000+ resume per day. should Google take a chance on you or hire a "sure thing"? a college degree is a good way to filter resumes, is it Google's falut to filter you out or your own problem not having a degree?
"However, Microsoft already has massive programmer support, along with a development suite that a number of developers seem to prefer. (Note: I am not one of them.)"
WTF do you mean? you're better than people who use Visual Studio? what a tard.
"They suck and are immoral, illegal and should be terminated completely. Bill should have been aborted before birth for the same reason." and you try to prove your point by that comment? i'll punch you in the face if our path ever cross.
Bitching about MS is one thing but your bitching is beyond bitching! I will like you to go seek a pysch doc. right away.
i agree. MS Windows is indeed the best consumer OS out there with vast hardware support, more software and user friendly. people saying otherwise are simply trying to bash MS.
Some critics of the antitrust proceedings against Microsoft assert that they were an unjustified assault on a business that held a large market share merely by outcompeting its rivals. Some hold that the case against Microsoft was the result of collusion between government and Microsoft's competitors in an attempt to gain an unfair advantage by thwarting the free market through government coercion. Nobel economist Milton Friedman believes that the antitrust case against Microsoft set a dangerous precedent that foreshadowed increasing government regulation of what was formerly an industry that was relatively free of "government intrusion" and that future technological progress in the industry will be impeded as a result. Moreover, Friedman says that antitrust laws do more harm than good and should not exist. Strict free market advocates believe that the only type of monopolies that should be dismantled are coercive monopolies and reject the claim that Microsoft falls in this category.
Jean-Louis Gassée, CEO of Be Inc., which at the time made a competing operating system which eventually folded in the face of Microsoft's dominance, provided a series of criticisms against the antitrust suit. These criticisms were levelled at the overemphasis on the "packaging problem". Microsoft wasn't really making any money off the "sales" of Internet Explorer, and its reason for incorporating it into the operating system was because the consumer expected to have a browser packaged with the operating system. Indeed, BeOS came packaged with its web browser, NetPositive. Instead, he argued, Microsoft's true anticompetitive clout was in the rebates it offered to OEMs preventing other operating systems from getting a foothold in the market.
The lobby group Association for Competitive Technology (ACT) was founded in response to the case, though some claim that the organization is mainly a front for Microsoft.
Microsoft created Windows like Apple created OSX. Each companies can bundle whatever hell they want because it is their platform! You're whining like a 12yrs old. Are you saying Ford can't bundle whatever hell they want with their car? You don't like the way they bundle the software, stick with Linux. No one force you to use Windows.
Damn MS if they don't include Security, Media player or whatever and Damn them if they do. Gee, how would you like to be please, today?
WinXP update(SP) doesn't cost any money if your copy is legit. you don't have to buy Vista if you don't like the features that come with it. WinXP will be supported for its life cycle.

LOL. it's funny to see a retarded reply with "MS's monopoly abuse" when Opensource can't compete.
why do they need Steve Job? MS have alway targeting the Corps. It's their bulk of biz. If Steve Jobs were to run MS like the way he run Apple. MS won't be where it is today.
dude, shut the fuck up. you just fucking playing with words. if i created something, you do not have any rights to copy my works, period! stupid fuck! talking shits out of your ass trying to justifie theft. Why don't you work for free?
Nice counter point. fuckwad! why don't you get shitter?

the never ending ranting of slashdotter bitching and moaning.
isn't the whole point of Opensource is everyone can look at the source and get rid of questionable code? so...what's the deal?
why not? MS is still the biggest commerical software company there is. whatever they plan to release will have an ripple effect on other software vendors. why do you think Symantec and McAfee are crying and moaning about Vista's security center and MS's AV software.
'cause not everyone have the money to buy a new car???? you sir = dumb.
people with CS degree got hired by Google?
what a tard.
it's free thus you don't cry murder but if MS's IE have a bug...you want blood. typical.
imagine the reaction of slashdotters...
hummm...you said it yourself. you got hired based on your employer taking a chance on you not having a formal education.

Engineers from the 70/80 created the Interweb thing
Engineers of today created Web 2.0 that doesn't solve any real problem or create better Interweb.
let's all get rich or try dieing with this Web 2.0

Mac OSX come with iTune and Microsoft can't make a media player for its users. Double standard, much?
