>I'm not interested in any kind of technical debate (or worse your opinion on what is or is not "moral") but I am curious as to why you haven't just said "Screw Microsoft I'll just work with something else" given your longstanding distaste with the company and how they treat you.

I'd like to know where you get "long standing distaste for the company and how it treats you" out of my posts here or anywhere else.
I criticize. Is that distaste? When have I complained about how MS has treated **me**? I do have trouble with the way Microsoft seems to treat its customers, which includes me, and I say so openly. That qualifies for "long standing distaste" and poor treatment?

Some of us take the approach that we'd "rather fight than switch". Some of us take the approach that a problem cannot be fixed if it is not made known in the first place, so we try to make it known.

I think you're one real jerk for drawing the conclusions that you have and hope that you come up with something a little more intelligent the next time you reply to any of mine.
