Much like irrational hatred of all things Apple

, which is by no means perfect, but was also not revealed during a lengthy trial to be a despicable, unethical, predatory monopolist (along with having a documented history of royally screwing it's so-called "partners", otherwise known as "victims-to-be") and found in violation of the Sherman Anti-trust Act.

>>> I can't help but be extremely curious as to why some people in the computer field hate Microsoft so much and why they are so passionate about it that it manifests itself in overt hostility toward those people who actually like Microsoft products. Why the intense hatred? What happened to you to cause so much resentment? I mean, if you don't like it, don't use it...what's the big deal??>>>

Should I also mentioned the spaghetti-coded, Rube Goldberg, Swiss-cheese security, "fix & patch & patch the fix" lousy quality software emanating from Redmond? Or the number of quality products/competitors wiped out or harmed by MS tactics or purchase or FUD?

As per MS lovers and users... personally, I cannot understand how or why they (you?) continue to put up with such shoddy products, treatment, wasted time & money and worse, somehow try to defend it!!!

Windows User = masochist... Wanting us all to be assimilated (MS goal) = sadist.

I don't like it... don't use it... and want to retain what little choice I now have (a Mac) thus objections to MS's unethical, "illegal?", anti-competitive tactics.

I speak up now while there's still a glimmer of hope to stop the seemingly-above-the-law juggernaut known as Microsoft.
