Kent, there is a nice sociology/anthropology term for your attitude
toward Microsoft; for you (and me), Microsoft is 'ritually unclean',
like pork to Muslims and Jews ;-).
I prefer the legal term: criminal.
I like both characterizations, though the former is an insult to pigs.
Microsoft can't even make the traditional view of pigs (actually a
conspicuously clean animal) look worse than itself. It (Microsoft)
doesn't fly here (much like pigs).
I like the idea. Microsoft is 'lo kasher' (non kosher).
BTW there are many things, other than pigs, which are not kosher, but
that would be getting even farther off topic.

No boom today. Boom tomorrow. There's always a boom tomorrow.
What?! Look, somebody's got to have some damn perspective around here.
Boom. Sooner or later ... boom!
