All Things Microsoft > Microsoft Software
Why I use MS products.

I don't like MS, actually I hate MS and I get frustrated that I have to use Bill's crappy software.
Here's why:
> I'm a webdesigner. IE has a market share of over 90% - how can I ignore that? Of course Mozilla is better, but I can't make sites just for the 2-3% that use Mozilla.
> Also, I like to play a nice game from time to time. On which OS can I play the latest games? On Linux or MacOs X? I don't think so.
ChakanTGM:
First of all, FUCK MICROSOFT.
Secondly, Websites can easily be designed to support and look great on both Mozilla and Internet Explorer. You're damn right Mozilla is "better".
Thirdly, you can play the latest games on Linux. Here are some links:
http://www.winehq.org
http://www.tuxgames.com
http://www.transgaming.com
http://linux.tucows.com/games.html
http://www.linuxgames.com
http://gentoogames.supercomputerinc.com
http://linuxshop.ru/linuxbegin/win-lin-soft-en
The problem isn't that Linux doesn't support the latest gaming technology. The truth is, Linux just needs people that will develop games for Linux.

Web designers should be writing to HTML standards. Web desingers should not write to MSIE, not to Mozilla, not to Opera, not to safari, etc. It's that simple.

i hate it when websites make pages that don't follow any sort of a standard. ocasionaly you will come across a page that appears to have no wording until you actually select where the words should be and you'll be able to see the black letters. a buddy of mine had a site on geocities that he wanted me to look at. i thought the page was totaly blank until i highlighted the text. the entire page appeared black in Mozilla and Opera. i looked at the source of the page and it had <font color="#000000"> around all the text... so why did the text appear as being green in Internet Explorer?

Maybe that website had style-sheets which said the text should be green...
For the people that didn't now: don't use <font> tags when you're already using style-sheets. I know it sounds logic, but many web developers seem to forget that.
