Probably won't cost them a cent. They'll tack a quarter onto everything they sell and license and it'll cover it for 'em.

I have joined the ranks of the Microsoft Haters . . . I used to wonder why some people were so down on them. Now, I are one of 'em.

Hey now hey now. Microsoft may be evil, but it keeps people like me in a job. Ever since vista came out, I have about 30-40% more students I have to help with odd problems on their computers. (I am a college tech assistant)
So far the winner for causing big problems is the "Norton Internet Security" (and general Norton Anti-virus) packages that come pre-installed on many computers. Seems to come up pretty often.

I don't understand why some people take delight in other's misfortune.
How does MS having to pay big$$$ make your life better? You sound like Angry White Men!

America likes the small and cute. Once you get large, you are hated.

American LIBERALS like the small and cute. Once you get large, you are hated. ( In all things except government--which, in their minds, can never be too big.) I pick on liberals, in this context, because I think they truly hate any sucessful business enterprise.

Yes there are instances of bad behavior in business. Are politicians exempt from this behavior, or is it part of the human condition? At least with business, there are laws that can be enforced; with politicians, you have almost no recourse--they are even limiting your freedom of speech. Only government can have men with guns take your property; business cannot do that.
