We dumped Adobe ages ago... Mike Cox -- 08/15/05
Mike - Do you work for Microsoft? I've rarely heard such a heavy pitch for any product.
More importantly Mike, what kind of loyalty amongst your employees do you have? You seem to fire people on a moments whim. Very sad. I don't know where your company is located or what services you perform, but it's unfortunate that you have such a short fuse and throw people's lives away the way you do.
Microsoft has some wonderful products and I utilize them - but it's difficult listening (or rather reading) to someone who is so aggressively angry that one can feel it in every touch of the keyboard.
Take it easy Mike - you'll live a lot longer
