One day the equivalent of our monopolies is going to wake up and hopefully crush MS... One can oly hope.

It was bad enough before, when MS only charged more if you offered an alternative.  Now, offering NONE gets you a penalty?  :mad:

I wonder if they're going to lobby the government to make sales of Non-Windows PCs illegal on the grounds that customers might buy them to replace the OS with a pirated version of Windows?   :rolleyes:

I wouldn't doubt that, they already have their sheep saying Linux should be illegal because it takes away from MS's software sales.

Another example of why not to use windozzzzzz or any microsoft product!

I for one can't wait to replace the only M$ product on my mac (office) with something better!

Only then will the M$ cancer be clear from my OS and I can truly say 'I now have a totally clean system'.
