MSFT blackmails its customers, unlike T, and also unlike IBM.

T is a great huge company, that actually tries to care about its customers despite its size. IBM is turning into another great huge company.

MSFT has always tried to burn its customers by forcing them to debug its software and shell out hundreds of dollars again and again and again to remain "compatible" with other MSFT systems and software, etc.

MSFT innovates, yes, but they USE their innovation to blackmail their customers: pay me $X or else critical application Y will no longer work properly with critical application Z that you just invested $Q in by purchasing our latest Z version.
