This was to be expected. Microsoft has the history of eating up every successful company that comes its way. It either buys it out, or simply annihilates by creating a rival.
Why media does create so much fuss around male-female issues? If they don't want to be a part of it, let it be so. I don't want them to be a part of this just because they are women. Please, keep computing and FOSS away from crappy feminism.
Internet not only cut us off from the people we really need to meet up, it also got also to get along with people we should really care about. We break away from our parents, friends, and spouse and chat with someone whom we have never met in real life. we feel safer because we don't have to assume any responsibility there, talk whatever you can , whenever you can, and when you grow out of the relationship, just walk away scot free. So personal relationship are really weak and flimsy these days. Every one seems to be chasing instant gratification. I see a social crisis ahead of us, when we will identify hollowness of instant gratification. There would be too little people who really care about us.
