I was actually thinking that "hey, Microsoft does give something of a damn about world issues" until I read THIS line:
 
quote:
Founded in 1975, Microsoft (Nasdaq "MSFT") is the worldwide leader in software, services and solutions that help people and businesses realize their full potential. --emphasis added

--- End quote ---


Of what, pray tell, of compromises and patheticly prohibitive corporate licenses?  Ah well, that's what you get for expecting unbiased news from MS...

I actually laughed out loud when I read this..  :D    :D

MrX:
just a bunch of propoganda to get you to buy MS shit.

Refalm:
I don't know about America, but in the Netherlands, companies get tax cuts if they donate to a good cause.

So we have a double standard here. Whenever you hear about a company donating, we know that it's free promotion and they get a tax cut.
