I would absolutely LOVE to see and hear your evidence which bring you to this conclusion. Microsoft has traveled a bitter and bumpy road to get where they are today, and granted there may have been some wrong doings of their employees over the past decade and a half, but the game the company has played has been fair. If you are going to accuse Microsoft of a 'chokehold' you really need to pull your head out of your ass. Let's see, how many companies have expanded the world over traveling a similar path? I can see just about every major defense contractor on that list, of which many manufacture commercial products, such as Boeing Inc. And let's not also forget IBM! What the hell kind of servers and mainframes do you think that most telcos run as PBX's? Aside from all usual courtesy, I'm just going to come right out and call you a dumbass. %100 stupid. Get off this newsgroup if you're going to post shit like this. >We started The Microsoft > Boycott Campaign to stop Bill Gates and his minions in their tracks, and > we need as many members as possible to do that. All we want our members > to do is not buy any Microsoft software (note I said buy, if you can get And also, somewhere along this line, you actually USED a microsoft product. I'm sorry, so you are going to limit your users from OS's also? DOS & Win 3.x, Win95, and WinNT. Sorry, would give you a shit's worth of attention more than this message. -- ------------------------------------------------------- David Quist Webmaster, The Massachusetts Daily Collegian http://www.umass.edu/rso/colegian E-Mail: dqu...@student.umass.edu WWW: http://www-unix.oit.umass.edu/~dquist -------------------------------------------------------
