I'm sorry, but when did any of those google desktop apps come close to being as useful as ms office? linux as windows?

It annoys me when muppets like this get up there and start bashing MS and predicting its imminent demise :p

I'd like to bet that 99% of them are using XP or 2000 Pro, running Word to write their sticky little doom laden, open source hugging little treatises...likewise, i bet their employers are across the board, and have NO intention of moving away from windows/office at any time in the foreseeable future... ;)

If you disagree with me, make sure you're doing it from the security of your linux distro, at your corporation that uses a free 'office clone';)

Disclaimer: i just watched my Super 14 Rugby team lose, live, and we lost a cricket game against the poms today, so i may, or may not, be at my most rational or fully tolerant of asshats like mr takahashi...i could be being too harsh...but i doubt it.

I too am sick and tired of people predicting the death of ms every 5 minutes, or extolling the praises of software 99% of the world doesn't care about. (OMGWTFBBQLOL google is releasing desktop apps...ok that's great)

Apple was going to Kill MS, then Java was going to kill MS, then Linux was going to kill MS, then MS was going to kill MS... but they are still here.
