Re: M$ want more M$$
All very true.
I'm not really a specific MS hater. I'm generally a corporation hater in general.
But I don't believe that MS is right for this job....and I don't like their ulterior motives.

You shouldn't be, if you like working.

I wouldn't presume to speak for Leviathan but I suspect he more accurately means he hates the way many if not most large corporations do business and how they treat their employees. |

Corporations are not the only ways to get work. I work for a small (3 man at the moment) company. Our job? Tell big corps how slow and wasteful their stovepiped structure has made their business, essentially...
It's a very generalized view of the world to indicate that corporations are necessary for employment...and it's an incorrect generalization. |

| Well, maybe I should have been more clear.
BUSINESSES (which includes corporations) are necessary for the little guy to work. Nothing general about that.

it is seeming to me that the more i read this, i come to the conclusion that they(MS) realize there is much more money doing this to make sure the other huge corporations that have the bazillion dollar bank accounts have to give MS the money for this new platform. they know the consumer wont buy this unless forced, so they will take this and lobby the hell out of it and cram this down our throats too. how ironic is it that a company bent on eliminating unlicensed( read unpaid, illegal) copies of their software from the marketplace has devised a way for huge record companies and the riaa and the mpaa to protect what they own too? so i for one have enough spare parts lying around to keep my box humming for a looooooooooong time. this sounds like another evil plan by the people in redmond, otherwise known as the borg.
