Well, Jim...I have never said MS had the best products, technologies, etc. I use products everyday from many different vendors. And my book is not about an MS product either. Earlier today, I blogged my dissatisfaction with the EULA onto my web site and I will be send an email to various MS employees, including Ken, yag, Eric Rudder, Steve Ballmer, and Bill Gates, expressing my opinion and explaining how this will hurt the developer community and eventually Microsoft.


>Since I'm vigilant in questioning your excusing (for) MS for most anything, let me acknowledge that this reply by you is most unexpected and so very 'refreshing'.
