Microsoft is getting undue criticism here I think. It seems very fashionable to bash MS and whinge about them but there are alternitives if people want to use them. Use Linux for free and all that free open source software. I've seen all these companies whinging on about forcing MS away from providing FREE 1st class software which is against the consumer interest. As a consumer I very much like MS providing free software part of my OS of choice. If I want something different I can use that instead. There is no monopoly as users and companies are totally free to choose whatever OS or application software they wish. Those that dont like MS or windows should just pipe down and quietly use something else.
