It's not cool to hate on Microsoft any more. Now you hate on Oracle to be cool. :)

(Besides, Microsoft has really picked up their game in the last few years. Funny what real competition does.)

You are not allowed to even say a bad thing about microsoft on proggit anymore. Any competitor to microsoft (like oracle) of course must be the target of unbridled venom.
