    Trust Microsoft

    I can just see it now, with all of these wacko's suing the government over "separation of church and state" c***, our money will soon be chenged from "In god we trust" to "in microsoft we trust." I'll have to move out of the country then.

    It's sad that arounf 90% of consumers trust microsoft interfering with their lives.

    Microshaft

    As an Apple user since 1979, I find the Microshaft article to be an outcry from industry experts who know that the software giant is up to no good. I especially appreciate how one of the people quoted in the article says that Microshaft's new Shithorn OS will finally have optional security. I also appreciate how industry researchers have concluded that Microshaft's hardware-based security will actually have the opposite effect of allowing cyber-pirates to operate in their own ultra-secure private crime networks that will be next to impossible to detect or eliminate. I especially appreciate how all the industry experts in the article came to the same conclusion that this new "Trusted Computing" c*** is nothing more than a way for Microshaft to protect itself, offering nothing to the consumer except diminished computing capacity. But most of all I am utterly offended by Microshaft's claim that they are doing all this security enhancement with the intention of shattering the image of Orville's "1984"! As I recall, back in 1984 Apple introduced the Mac with a commercial of a woman shattering a bunch of TV screens in front of a mass of mindless individuals akin to Orville's "1984". So here we are 20 years later and Microshaft is stealing Apple's innovative marketing campaign from 2 decades ago. I think that I will continue to not trust Microshaft and they can take their Trusted Computing bullshit and shove it up their a**.

    ...the same people that brought you "Zero Wing." All your base are belong to us. "MIT's Media Lab debuted a Web site [...] that aspires provide the users sustain it" -- really? Someone set up us the bomb!

    hey shutup guy...

    A forum is for ranting, you mindless idiot. As long as it's intelligent, it's welcome. I'm sure you would probably prefer page after page of the usual meaningless commentary that can easily be found here, but some people can actually put together whole relevant sentences that pertain to the topic at hand. We also enjoy reading them

    Now be a good boy and do like your momma told you. If you don't have anything good to say, STFU.
