Thought I would drop by to register a small complaint on Microsoft.
They recently took over Hotmail who I use for my E-mail. Hotmail used to provide USA Today for free. Now I get Microsoft Net News. In several months of use Hotmail was never down. Now since the MSFT bunch took over they went down for "one and a half to two hours" at 2:30 am PST for routine maintenance. They did not go up until 10:00am and then a half hour later have gone down again. I am getting the same message with a new time stuck in.
Now I understand the need for MSFT to keep growing since Billy G. is only worth 40 billion. But why couldn't they buy AOL? They have even more people using E-mail and they are already screwed up. $#%$#*(*%%$#%)(*)(*R$ Hosebags!!
