Did she really say this without cracking up...
>>> Microsoft spokeswoman Stacy Drake reiterated the company's position that its Chimney technology was "independently developed."

"As an intellectual property company, we invest heavily in research and development and are committed to respecting the intellectual property rights of others," Drake said. >>>

Are all MS employees... brainwashed in "MS-speak" (eg, twisting reality; over use of variations of "innovate", etc), habitual liars or living in another, parallel universe???

If she really did make this statement seriously and straight-faced, give the woman an Oscar happy
