[OT] Microsoft Bashing

[vendor at billoblog.com]

The best article I've ever read on the change at Microsoft was a memoir by 
Joel Spolsky (the "Joel on Software" blog) written in 2006.  He wrote 
about having to pitch a project to Bill Gates, and how important it was 
that Gates had a technical background.  See:
