I'm surprised they quashed YOU, too. At least I'm in good company! I wonder who else is on the list.

Frankly, I don't care whether anybody else posts here or not. I'm not in a thread war for volume -- it's more a matter of pointing out the intolerance to ideas that has been shown by the others, and offering an alternative moderated thread should one prove desirable. Any newcomers who do a search on "Microsoft" in the subject names will turn up all three threads, and hopefully realize that something is going on. I considered titling it "Microsoft - the negatives" or something like that, but that's not really what it is -- I'm more after the non-sycophant side, and reasonably balanced commentary is fine (even if it contains some positives <g>).

I suspect I'll have enough to say in response to nonsense that appears "over there" to keep the "latest" indicator reasonably current even if I'm the only one here.

The crazy thing about their move against me/us is the timing. With the new Sun-Microsoft deal just announced, I would probably have toned down the level of my criticism to wait and see how things fall out, so it's odd that they would choose now to act (especially since only a few weeks ago they decided, after an informal poll, to keep me).

All JMHO.
