# I actually stand up for MS a lot.
They do produce good software and a lot of their standards (like, for example, case insensitive file names) make the standard standards look a bit shit, but sometimes they piss me off.

If anyone is having problems with IE7 flagging their sites as phishing I can fix that btw.

MS charge a fucking fortune for stuff when you can get open source counterparts free

Open-Office for example

# I used Open Office for a long time,
but it just isn't as good.

I use some open source stuff and all my hosting is Unix, but MS stuff works really well on the whole.

# Open Office = not all that good... (but for FREE???)
