All Things Microsoft > Microsoft Software

Let me try to understand this bit...

I want to know what Microsoft has done to deserve a web site such as this, with the hatred to go along with it.

Let's try to keep this discussion away from the children at the keyboard.

Gonusto:
How about you take the time to read through some of the older threads and posts and not have other people waste their time by saying things that they've said a couple hundred times before?  As for all the flaming that goes on around here . . . that question has been asked and answered a couple times before as well.

Ahh yes, I did go through some of the other threads. Some useless opinions as Microsoft being a huge empire and no one support them, Bill Gates being a nazi, ect.

But then we have some more constructive reasons. Security holes, multi-tasking, ect.

Some useless ones arose, as well. System crashes, for example, are only apparent in the uninitiated. For some reason, me, my friends, and a whole lotta others on the Internet don't have these system crashes.

So whether or not anyone here wants to provide concrete evidence as to why I should not use Windows, and the disdain given for Microsoft.

Master of Reality:
and how did you stop windows from crashing...
let me guess you open a cammand prompt and wrote format c: ?

Alot of people dislike M$ on ethical grounds, that is my major qualm with them. Their company does nothing but steal others ideas and pass it off as their own. They have a huge marketing machine that uses FUD as a main buissness tactic and does not actually make a better product.

Mac OS X, Linux/*NIX are infinitly better than M$'s windows and yet must remain in the background while M$ floods the airways with their BS.

As if this were not bad enugh, M$ is vieing for control of one of the largest systems of cominication known to man. They want to dominate the internet by foricing their browser on people and imposing things like .NET.

They are openly against open source and are on the war  path in order to destroy it because they belive it is a threat to their software monopoly. For similar reasons they shun the Mp3 format along with others.

M$ does not keep it's users in mind but rather their checkbooks. And instead of establishing a userbase by creating good products they do it by forcing everyone out of the marketplace, imposing stupid retroactive EULA's and wireing phone-home loopholes into their software.

Now, why do you think M$ is so great that a site like this is uncalld for?
