I Hate Microsoft
Its not because their products stink cos really they aren’t much worse than anything else, they get the job done with no frills etc. But I am tired of their attitude. They don’t innovate and so when something comes along that takes over the market they get all sulky and make grand statements proclaiming their competitors can’t last like these two this week:
The ipod is on the way out
Google to perish in five years
I think Gates and Ballmer see themselves as God-like, issuing sermons that the great public will just lap up and obey without reason. I’m dupming my iPod for a crappy cell phone, Bill Gates told me to! Rather than spin PR, I think the MS $ would be better spent making a better product that can compete with the incompetent companies like Apple and Google.
