You're sounding like the anti-Mike Cox.
All that work to get rid of Microsoft?! Put it: many would not have your determination and persistence.

Fewer still when Microsoft develops the range of software and pricing plans that will always mean that the software you're not sure you want happens to be the freebie in the package. I think the current licensing plan is a first shot, and Microsoft is famous for not getting it right until the third try.

Maybe by then there won't be so many open source volunteers wrecking their prospects of finding a new job, and Microsoft will inherit. Agreed?
