Wow
It's amazing how hypocrisy is clearly being displayed by people here.

Let's see, Apple = Good, MS = Evil.

So MS ends MSN for Mac, and the fanbois throws a hissy fit, unable to comprehend how MS can be so Evil as to end support of MSN on Mac.

But they forget how Apple does things. Anyone familiar with Logic? It's a multitrack music app that used to be PC and Mac compatible. Then Apple bought Logic, and immediately ended support for the PC version. This stranded many people who invested a *lot* of money in their music software, with no future upgrade path.

Yet, something as trivial as ending dialup service when there are countless options available just proves how Evil MS is.

I just have to laugh at the stupidity of some people, and at the same time it's sad really.
