Regardless of what you think Microsoft is doing wrong, no one seems to think that Microsoft is doing a great job. They may still have the top position (by a lot) in desktop market share, but they are losing it fast. The point is, Microsoft seems to be shooting themselves in the foot.
Ah the taste of victory. It is sweet. :) Especially if it is an immense victory over Microsoft. I know, I should probably get a life and stop boasting about my small over-comings of Microsoft’s huge shortcomings. :D I should also stop drinking too much tea. I think it’s melting my brain. :D No? Fine then, I think I will pester you all with this post on the WINdows Emulator.

Linux user for a couple of years. Only Linux and I love it.
