Thank you but Microsoft owns most of us and our daily interactions on
the Internet is controlled by MS wares. There's no way around this
monster even if you were to be a caveman just to get away from it all,
Microsoft will be there somehow and in some way or fashion. So I would
be careful about what I say about Microsoft. >:--|_

I love Microsoft, Bill Gates is the greatest inventor of all time next
to Al Gore who invented the Internet. Down with Open Office, down with
Open Software! Just say no to .ODS. Bill Gates discovered the DNA of
software user interfaces. Not Apple!
