Hmmm
1. Agreed. Just how long they can use their clout to move into other areas until someone decides that's too much against the concept of free enterprise is another argument.

2. I'll get the popcorn.

3. Quite. Given everything pulled out of Vista (I still pine over the loss of WinFS) and how XP was said to be "What Windows 2000 should have been", we can only hope Win7 is sold at a decent cost. If Vista is only $3 in China...

4. I'll take your word for it. For all the problems I've had with Vista, Office 2007 is a joy (and I've had none with it so far. Indeed, it is not just a worthy product but an excellent one.)

5. Understandable.

6. Understandable; see #3 for web search what good deals some countries are getting while we're still forkin' it over... want globalization? Then both sides have to be equal.

7. I know nothing of OOXML, apart from what the acronym stands for.

8. Hillary, shillary. She claims to help both the middle class while opening up unlimited H1Bs. (is that because the current ones couldn't get Vista anything near what Microsoft promised it to be, because the American workers said to not wanted to have bothered probably knew better to start with? (With all the articles out there, connecting them doesn't always work...) Never mind the WGA debacle, they surely won't kill their cash cow, what with their little problem with piracy and all... and for that no dots are needed. May as well give a fox control of the hen house and make it promise to eat tofu instead...)

9. I don't know what MS is doing to "control". I ought to find out and then give a response. Control isn't always a bad thing and there are times I'd welcome it too...

10. Interesting, if true. I'll get out some more popcorn... and soda.
