“Microsoft has really turned into a joke.”

Microsoft was always a joke.

Don’t ever forget - it was the MEDIA who gave Microsoft its monopoly. IBM’s OS/2 and Apple’s MACs where always better than any version of Windows.

But Gates courted the PC media - brought them to special shindigs in Redmond - wined and dined them - gave them juicy tidbits of press releases.. The media identified with Gates. So they always lied and badmouthed OS/2 and Apples.

It was analogous to the way the media identifies with Liberals now and they lie and badmouth conservatives.
