          Microsoft is sitting on $40Billion in cash and short term paper, you'd think they cut all the pirates some slack. Think they've made plenty dispite all the thievery, instead of still trying to pile up their hoard of dough.

            Didn't they bust a pirating ring run by some Chinese woman? They had made something like $60 mil selling fake Windows copies all over the world...whee.

                Anyone else remember when copy-protection meant a 5.25" disk with holes punched in it?

                    I thought the apple II brough computers to the masses. Of course computer porn just didn't look the same in glorious 16 color resolution.

                        amen brother.. hate MS all you want.. they standardized the industry, included a TCP/IP stack in Win98 which allowed AOL to go nuts, helped drive computer costs down by supporting standards in a OS that a million companies could produce hardware to support, wrote a better browser ( IE4+ ownz ), etc...

                        shame on those fuckers.. a buinesses trying to make money.. oh wait.. isnt that what we do ?

                          that's highly unlikely. MS has too much money and too many people have interest in it.

                            Careful, its more like they found a bunch of copyed products worth $60 million, its the way the report those stories. They probably had found $60 million worth of software not that the people made $60 million off it. BIG DIFFERENCE.

                              Dude, Bill Gates fucking stole the GUI concept for Windows from Apple. If you want to thank anyone, thank Woz and Steve Jobs.

                              I totally admire and have the utmost respect for Bill Gates. He is a master at the explotaition of other peoples ideas. And there's nothing wrong with that, but give credit where credit is due.

                                    History shows us that the person who is 2nd to market almost always makes more $ than the person who is first to market :-)

                                      Thank you.

                                      I cannot stand all these people who rag on MS and then go sit in front of thier Dell box running XP Pro with IE 6.

                                      If you don't like MS, there is always Linux.
