Ever considered that some people are bashing Microsoft
for other reasons
than tryiong to be funny?
Such as: There are actually legitimate concerns about the quality of their
products.
And *nix/OSX/VMS/zOS/zVM are free of quality defects? Where are the
cheap shots against these? The cheap shots we hear over and over
again...
And do not come back with something like "well, Microsoft deserves
them because they have way more defects". Plenty of people use
Microsoft products - .NET included - and seem to do just fine.
You must realize that there is a big difference between a legitimate
complaint and bashing. The latter wore out its welcome with me years
ago. The last funny thing related to Microsoft bashing I saw was Kai's
form letter responses to bashing on this list, in the early days.
