No I think you don't know your head from your arstechnica

Twenty years ago, hmm, what CPU was popular NOT Intel! What server was storming the planet? UNIX you dork and then Novell who pretended they were as good as UNIX who is still used for mission-critical stuff today! What not Linux? No wait there could not have been Linux twenty years ago and no M$ monopoly back then when I think they derived more income from developer tools and mice than the OS they ran with and Apple stuff too! Have you looked at the history of the OS, especially from UNIX and the years of branches of this and that? How many systems have there been and is M$ who really got their monopoly for building a better mousetrap around Windows 3 through 98 or so and then after 1998 really sealing the deal retroactively punishable because they were a success? Do my words have to many syllables for you? Does Goole.com not matter more now? Maybe even Novell when in its death throes even abandoned Netscape for Internet Explorer, that it was superior technology and that Netscape was having, in a Novellian's words, having diffuculty keepoing up technologically. Now I don't know, but even a small company can out code M$ if it has a drive to do so, but it seems Netscape and all of the other scapegoats of the money rush to attack the successful capitalists around the world means more. Remember anything you do will come back to get you and all of the lame competition for Microsoft is getting beat more by people who understand the grander visions of platform and interoperability with YOU OWN PRODUCTS FIRST and a competitors' second and the success it brings and not the lameness of, well Mr Gipper speak the words for me: "Accommodation is based on wishing not thinking, and if the wish
doesn't come true the enemy is far stronger than he was before
you started down that road. The other way is based on the belief
(supported so far by all evidence) that in an all out race our
system is stronger, and eventually the enemy gives up the race as
a hopeless cause. Then a noble nation believing in peace extends
the hand of friendship and says there is room in the world for
both of us. We can make those rockets into bridge lamps by being
so strong the enemy has no choice, or we can bet our lives and
freedom on the cockeyed theory that if we make him strong enough
he'll learn to love us." That was Ronald Reagan Mr. Tranz-Mischen, so take it for what you will you ignoramous slug haX0r f00] bagg3|}. History, I slept through got an A and read PeOpLe'S hIsToRy too many times to count, M$ isn't the evil in the world it is the ignorance that lets them exist.
