Hey, Mission Viejo is Burroughs (Unisys) territory. Of course, Bob Barton invented the B5000 in 1963 with the best OS ever, Burroughs MCP (first commercial VM, and still the best, security, first in high-level language - ALGOL - which leaves C in th…

Where will they find any gurus? If you are an expert in Microsoft stuff, you certainly are not a guru in computing, more an aguru - one who is unenlightened. Here's an original thought for Microsoft, why don't you set up Yogi Bars? Mmmm, perhaps tha…

I'd hardly call Microsoft an early software pioneer - they were rather late, the foundations of software were well established long before MS came along (same applies to Apple actually) and a copier rather than pioneer.

Ever wonder how IBM sold rubbish like the system 360 (displacing the B5000 out a year earlier) the PC, (displacing Mac out a year later), with junk like MS-DOS and then Windows 1.0, etc, etc?

It's pure FUD. They know people (particularly Americans) hate tax. In this case how stupid do they think people are? Microsoft is much more likely to be labelled a taxation agent through its licencing agreements.

Leather shoes worn in the shower? Computers soft and sticky like cakes you can eat? While Apple thinks different, Microsoft just thinks stupid!

Before suggesting that menus should be anywhere other than the top of the screen, please review Fitts' Law: http://www.asktog.com/basics/firstPr....html#fittsLaw Basically the edges of the screen are easy to hit and fast to get to. Menus place…

Burglarize is a pointless word. The root word is to burgle, which is a verb. A burglar is one who burgles - a noun. There is no point in making another verb by adding ize on the end of burglar! It's like Pendle Hill near Blackpool. Pend means hil…

Great how Apple has to licence these pirated fonts from Microsoft ? what a nerve. Arial is a rip off of Helvetica, Verdana - Frutiger, and Times New Roman of Times. As usual for Microsoft, the copies aren't even as nice as the originals (but it take…
