Microsuck.com featured on Forbes.com (again)!

[CommonSense]

We were once featured in 2002, under the old website name, and we're being featured again, in a story on corporate "sucks" websites.

Cute, no?

Bravo!

Too bad they give quite a condescending spin to the story. But of course, what else to expect from a corporate rag. :rolleyes:

HAHA!!!  They quoted Kintaro!

[Kintaro]

Holy fucking fucking fucking fucking fucking fuck.

Wow.

This is the best day since I became a moderator here around 3 or 4 years ago. I remember then, I felt like I do now, completly fucking estatic. By god, sweet sweet freedom could not have been better.

I just rang my father, brother, and friends to tell them about this.

huh?

to me it looks like half a page of CommonSense quotes and half a page of X11 quotes, how is that negative?

[Laukev7]

You should read the first page...

But while your average disgruntled consumer simply vents their bile by bellowing at a bewildered service rep, a few go farther. Much farther. These perennially peeved people build--and obsessively maintain--sites devoted exclusively to complaining about their least favorite corporations.

heres the quote Forbes pulls from the (representative?) Anti-microsoft website site
[indent] What drug am I "on" you must be wondering? I am on the ecstasy that my laptop is mine, the toxin of Open Source. --- Oh yes, Baby! ---Sweet, sweet, sweet like candy after staying with a diabetic, sweet Linux. [/indent]When Forbes confronted Microsoft about this, their reply was
[indent] No Comment [/indent]

I think they could have come up with some better content to put on the description of this site...

it makes you (dare i say 'us' ?) sound too...


flakey?
