April and May have been busy months for Billy Boy as he rapidly divests
himself of the Microsoft dinosaur.

Why is the /leader/ of Microsoft abandoning his stock so rapidly !
Look at these sales -- it's 3 or 4 times a day or more!

Guess Billy knows what his underlings don't :: It's Over, Linux Won.

You're on some serious drugs, dude. Whatever we may think or
Microshit, all the wishful thinking you can muster won't make your
delusional perceptions a reality. If you had a million dollars and
were throwing pennies out the window every day of your life, only
a fool would actually see that as "divesting yourself of your fortunes".
Microcrap is not in any kind of financial trouble any which way you
spin it. With greater than 95% profit margin on every unit they ship,
you're an idiot to pretend they're going broke right now or in the
foreseeable future.

Microbullshit may go down the tubes eventually or be forced to change
their market strategy, but that won't happen for a long, long time. Even if
they completely abandoned software they would still exist in a strong
financial state because of their enormous diversed holdings.

And now, a look back at a real loser:

Ok, then, give the $$$ to Linus.

He'll do the job for less and distribute more of it to charity.

Whats the matter, Simon?
I know you don't like those google URLs, but that is entirely *your* problem

You behave like that swine you are, you get treated like a swine. Simple,
isn't it?

I don't know if you need to be concerned, Donovan, but if it's your system
with the IP address 24.71.223.147, then you appear to be hosting an open
NNTP relay.
