I have to say, i would hate being in a world ruled by M$, no open standards onl,ine, youd have to use IE, and there would be no other OSs.
Horrible thought

So caspar, you want to live in a world owned by MicroSoft Corp?

Anyway its m$ that are against standards, they make it say only they know them, unlike open standards, which are open for any one to use. (duh)

Strange, thought M$ were told in court recently to give other company's access to the windows standards. :confused:

But that's 400,000 sold to retail, not to customers, remember.

Although Nokia hates this comparison, the Game Boy Advance continues to sell incredibly well in the UK, selling at a ratio of over 50 to one more than N-Gage, and increasing its performance on last week by another 25 per cent.

Poor Nokia! Like they had a chance :D
