Call me instead of India next time, resident FR computer consultant.
Unless you're a man, in which case you're on your own. I only give it away for free to women, LOL.
C: "My new computer won't start."
IHD: "Reinstalling your C compiler, fix the problem will."
C: "Ahhh.... and how can I do that if it won't start?"
I suppose there are some who are competent, but if even half of them were were, companies wouldn't be trying to give them a mid-western "accent".
We should outsource to the Balkans!
;-)
Thank you that was a very thoughtful and incisive reply.

ping. how long before yellow bird shows up and blames linux?
Of course it's all Linux's fault. I mean, how can an American company with over 90% of the browser market, and over 90% of the OS market compete with little upstarts that people can give away for free?
Poor little MS--they only have multiple billions of cash reserves. How can that possibly last when they're "competing" against free software?
Soon to be renamed TraitorSoft
Good thing Microsoft is here to protect is from the ChiComs, huh?
ROTFL
Moasoft. Thats the ticket.
Disgusting, but still far behind IBM and their transfers, including up to 10,000 at once.

Use Apple if you don't like Microsoft, I just have a problem with Linux, a freeware clone of Unix being developed by IBM that is the official operating system of the Chinese government.
Yep. You've sure convinced me. You spent an entire word condemning Microsoft before you launched into another tirade against Linux. A whole 2% of your post actually was spent on saying you disagreed with MS.
Yup--color me impressed.
I'm getting rid of IBM and Linux. When are you getting rid of Microsoft?
Great, glad to hear it.
When are you getting rid of Microsoft?
When the DNC starts endorsing their products like they do Linux and open source, when they start giving their software away to China and other communist governments for free like IBM and Red Hat do, and when their supporters primarily consist of raving mad lunatics who want to make all software free. When those things happen, I assure you I will speak out against them at every opportunity.
What a load of bloviating hypocrisy. Microsoft and Bill Gates are actively praising and supporting the ChiCom Leaders - far more than we've ever seen from the Linux community.
Ridiculous, while I'm certainly not happy about Microsoft's growing commitment to China, they are simply playing catchup with the ties already built by IBM and the open source communists.
IBM sought a China partnership, not just a sale
IBM to launch Linux technology center in south China
US sees a spy in China's Lenovo
IBM bundles up with Chinese Linux company
IBM votes for more offshore outsourcing
It's obvious that you don't really give a damn about China - your comments are merely a cynical ploy to divert attention from Microsoft's support of the evil ChiCom dictatorship. If Adolph Hitler was running Microsoft, you'd still support them.
