Anthology? Howsa bout analogy: anthology
1. A collection of literary pieces, such as poems, short stories, or plays.
2. A miscellany, assortment, or catalog, as of complaints, comments, or ideas: ?The Irish love their constitution for what it is: an anthology of the clerical-nationalist ideas of 1936? (Economist).

analogy
1. Similarity in some respects between things that are otherwise dissimilar.
2. A comparison based on such similarity.

So ummm how many copies of Microsoft products do you own? If none, what's your beef? If you own 1 item then it seems to me that you too have fallen for Microsoft's "trap" of providing a product you need. If you own any Micorsoft products and don't like the price you paid, why did you not research and purchase alternatives? Bottom line no one twists anyones arm to purchase Micorsoft products. Lest you feel the need to call me a MS schill, I purchased my last (as in there ain't gonna be no more) Micorsoft product 5 years ago and I am not looking back.; Posted by: Squawkbox Posted on: 08/06/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
