microsoft TRUSTWORTHY?

found this amusing, maybe you wil ltoo

"He told an audience of 2,500 guests that it had only recently become clear to Microsoft that as an industry leader it needed to behave differently", from that article.

Only recently? What typical msoft pr peddle.

Does anyone buy that? They haven't been trustworthy or release secure products. Why am I supposed to believe that suddenly they realized they've been doing things wrong? They're making obscene amounts of money, so they're doing good work for themselves. I doubt they'll suddenly change. Maybe they will, but I highly doubt it.

Likely that's the additional pr line to appease the EU and US govt's. We'll be good now, we promise, you don't have to watch us, we'll change, honest.

Uh-huh.
