friday pseudo poll - show me yer M$ sigs

ok...it's friday...and i'm 2 hours away from beer o'clock..so

i've noticed that alot of ao'ers have sigs like mine...slamming our fav corp behemoth...

so...let's seem 'em

btw...i have to agree with something that techiechick said in another thread...where would we all be without m$...would AO even exist...would i have a job...hmmmm...maybe i should send bill a thank you card...no wait...i'm in again this weekend patching ie...maybe i'll send him this :flash:

i suppose there'd be alot more linux/mac viruses around out there...someone will always figure out how to break stuff...sigh...

My fav, although not slamming M$ is:

Linux: The choice of a GNU generation.

Well... If you just look down you'll see my M$ sig :)

My favorite is a pic that has been used several times here and there.

Bill! Do you have your Tux on yet? It's time to go.

Just too furry friends....

Bill looks like he's giving the old stink eye

in a world without walls, who needs *windows* or *gates*

u all slam microsoft but how many of you use it?? i think over 80% of ppl on here use it
its quite simple you dont like it dont use it their are pleanty of linux distros bsd mac os os/2 etc
or are you all saying it to look 1337 cause thats what 1337 people say??
so in summary stop bagging ms cause its 1337 until u stop using them completly i mean not 1 product or u have a reason like bill gates ate my kids somthing like that
so techiechick i agree with you
p.s are u still my valentines hehe sorry had to add it

Look down, look way, way down. (Actually, just a couple of lines down to see my sig)

If you're in support of just about any kind you're stuck dealing with M$ products but it doesn't mean we can't whine about it. :D


Tripped across this interesting quote, and while it's rather old it only backs up my theory that OS upgrades are created for revenu generation and not technical advances.


"The reason we come up with new versions is not to fix bugs. It's absolutely not. It's the stupidest reason to buy a new version I ever heard. When we do a new version we put in lots of new things that people are asking for. And so, in no sense, is stability a reason to move to a new version. It's never a reason."
- Bill Gates, interviewed by Juergen Scriba of FOCUS magazine, Oct. '95 -
