Actually, Microsoff is the new name. Since the company named Microsoft was virtually synonymous with world domination, unfair business practices and 1000 pound gorillas, Bill Grates and his board of directors decided that a name change was in order. They were looking for something less threatening to competing companies. Microsoff just seemed to work. Personally, I was voting for Microsloth. How cute would that be, a small, furry, slow moving creature...the DOJ would have to look the other way...Janet Reno sometimes has that sloth-look...I think it's the hair..

Come on Cube, this is REALLY a joke.. The article mentions the Borg pack..ever even seen an episode of star trek that wasn't produced in the 60s and 70s?! Here's some more "official" items from the microsoff web page:

Bill Gates: "Mein Computer"

Microsoff Press: "Setting up
XFree86 in 8,192 Easy
Steps"


The last one is HILLARIOUS!
