Who out there is a Microsoft supporter?

I personally support Microsoft all the way. They aren't an evil monopoly plus they write the best darn server apps out there.

.NET rules!
 
As for their business practices...ehh, I'm indifferent. I would probably do the same types of things if I were them.

Their products r0x0r tho.
 
I support MS I suppose, because I bought a copy of Windows XP.

If something works, and I need it, I'll get it. Windows XP is a superior product. I'm a supporter of quality.
 
I'd personally support MSFT a little more if their stock paid a dividend or did a big stock buyback... they're sitting on about $42 billion in cash right now, why not send a bit of that the shareholder's way? What are they planning to do with that kind of loot sitting in a bank account, buy Iceland or some other small country?
 
Overall, I'm quite pleased with MS products, each new OS is more robust than the last🙂
 
Yay! No Microsoft haters have posted. 😛

BTW, I'm also a big fan of Linux even though I'm not wearing my 2.4 source shirt right now 😉
 
I'm startoing to get disillusioned regarding MS. After their last trick with the WMP EULA and the rumors about Pallidun(sp) I think they are getting too invasive. Honestly, if Linux did what Windows did I'd just as soon use that (Now watch the Linux Weenies come out and say it does)

Holy shmokes!

You are 14 and you can program COM+ and DCOM in VB and C++? And you know how to run Exchange?

<-- feels like a dumbass
 
I don't like either WPA or that new hardware security crap but Linux is nowhere near being a viable alternative on the desktop, and Apple is way too expensive.
