Why do people hate Microsoft?
Tuesday, 30 May 2006
I’ve admired the work of Danny Katz for quite a while now. Amongst other things, he writes some wonderfully quirky and humorous columns for “The Age”, here in Melbourne.
In last weeks column, entitled “Standing up for the underdog”, Danny defends Microsoft and asks:
Why do people hate Microsoft so much? They’ve given the world a wonderful word processor that helps us write our documents - even though that annoying office assistant keeps popping up and saying “What would you like me to do?” and you always feel like typing in “Stab yourself in the neck with your own foot”.
Read the rest. The humour is largely in the fact that it’s all true.
