Hey Ax don't faint we agree
And here is why. It was widely reported that Mike Rowe did this to expand his business or whatever, a noble idea. On the surface I too chuckled at the thought of Microsoft being so petty. Then I read this post on http://mikerowesoft.com/
Posted

All along I have just wanted to prove a point that the small guy can win against the giant corporations. Hopefully people will stick up to what they think is right even if someone bigger than you is behind it.


Since this was his intent from the outset, Microsoft would do well to ignore this twit. I am no fan of Microsoft and I have little patience for these self appointed Don Quixotes. Ok Mike Rowe you have had your 5 minutes it is time to shut up.
