Reg-

I never learned on a MSFT app, so according to your logic, I should not think MSFT is the best.

No, according to my logic, you know how to use MSFT products well, so you think they're the best. I don't know where you got the whole learning thing.

They are everywhere because they were better. Maybe not in the beginning, but in the end, yes. I could run down a list , but it would be fruitless.

No, Reg, they are everywhere because MSFT got some killer licensing deals in the beginning, and caught the PC wave right at the right time. It doesn't have anything to do with good products, it's got everything to do with being first to market (no matter the quality), great marketing, and unscrupulous management.

I never said they were new or great, I said that they were implemented for PC productivity software. You told me I didn't know what I was talking about and challenged me to name products, which I did.

Yup, I challenged you to name MSFT products that use AI. You didn't. You gave me more examples of stuff MSFT has co-opted from other areas, which has then been labled as 'new' and 'groundbreaking'.
