Awful litigation...
Microsoft should never be forced to change their products. Microsoft products are the lingua franca of the Internet age. Products like Internet Explorer and the overall Windows eXPerience are the very fabric that keep the Internet together. Changing Internet Explorer is like changing the way we use past and present tense in language: it is not possible. My rep said Microsoft does not want to do this but are being forced to by a bunch of Open Source loving fools who do not have the vision to understand Microsoft is doing what needs to be done to make sure the Internet survives. A tear came to my eye when my rep told me how personally painful it was for BillG to order this change. My rep said the memo came down: "Carry out Executive Order 66". My rep and I are going out for dinner to discuss the consequences of such actions. Friends, the time to rally around Microsoft is now.
