All can win
..It is strange that although the clean up bill for the global security mess that is directly attributabel to MSs s/w, costed the entire world around $200 Billion in the last year, MS itself still managed to rake in $2.69 billion in the last quarter...

It's not really.
If MS are resposible for lost productivity would they not also be entitled to a cut of the money attributed to increased productivity?

MS weren't the only company to make money last quarter. Strange.
