    I just read an article about Apple knocking of several 3rd party apps, and in turn running them out of buisness. The author, Vern Seward, complains about apple integrating it into the operating system and finishes off the article by saying : "Unlike Microsoft, Apple isn't trying to make it impossible for you to use alternative products." I don't see how Microsoft is making it impossible for me use Sonork, Yahoo, or any other IM. I just hate it when news sources turn every single article into a Microsoft bashing. It makes me so :mad: Just my rant. -:suss:Matt Newman / Windows XP Activist:suss: -Sonork ID: 100.11179

It makes me so I think you will always see Microsoft in the news being sown as the bad guy because they are so big. Whoever is the biggest will always have enemies below, that is human nature.

        I totally understand that but this article had absolutely nothing to do with Microsoft and then all of a sudden he decided to start bashing Microsoft. Sometimes it just makes me so mad that they call themselves "news sources". -:suss:Matt Newman / Windows XP Activist:suss: -Sonork ID: 100.11179
