Why pop a blood vessel?
I just love you guys that moan about MS - I'm sure the apps YOU write are absolutely perfect!

So Microsoft software is buggy - show me an app that isn't (don't you dare mention Linux or anything that runs on a Mac!)

Where's the difference in MS bug fixing or open source being 'improved'?

Point is I can't believe people still get worked up about it... oh well, easy target and we do like to moan, don't we?
