I call them the way I see them.
Many seem to think I am a big MS supporter, it simply isn't true and I take MS to task in ways most people will never understand. (It's all well and good to come to the talkbacks and spout rhetoric but it accomplishes nothing.) I choose to deal with it on a more direct level with MS and it's management.

I guess where people have a problem with the times I do support Microsoft is that they simply can't accept that not everything Microsoft does is born of the devil. That is a childish point of view and not one any thinking person would waste time on.

Myself, I say pat them on the back when they are right, and head slap them when they are wrong. After all, if all they ever receive is head slaps, how are they to know when they are doing something right. Yeah I know, there I go using common sense again...
