??? I just told you if you don't like MS then go change to something else, so I have no idea what you're talking about. What I am definitely opposed to, if this is what you're getting at, is foreign socialists if not communists making clones of our products then flooding the market with them at the expense of US businesses.
if Microsoft is saying it is not concerned with the problems faced by its customers, then their customers will look elsewhere. How many times must something so obvious be said? Why would anyone disagree with that?
I never did, I said quit your whining already and go ahead, if you think you'll actually be better off.
I and many others, if what they say about .NET is true. That's what I said - to you. I think we agree. But I doubt you want to say that.
go ahead, if you think you'll actually be better off
You seem bitter about, nonetheless. It's called the free market. If Microsoft is doing something to offend its customers, its customers may decide to look elsewhere. If they can't do what they need to do with 'new and improved', then old and stable, or something else entirely, might seem preferable. It's nothing to get upset about, unless I suppose if you work for Microsoft.
