While I think you're just making a joke and may already know this, it is important to keep in mind that Microsoft's involvement with this is probably very minimal and seems to be a no-win situation for it (edit: them? Interesting. It seems natural to say "them" here verbally but we use companies in the singular form. E.g. "Microsoft is.." instead of the British way of "Microsoft are..." yet the pronoun of Microsoft is them?)
- Kurtz79 15y agoIt was a bitter joke, I think it's not too far from the truth.
- melvinram 15y agoThe edit comment is just a distraction. It/them/blah doesn't matter. Pick one. Stick with it. People will understand. PS: Agree with the rest of your comment.
- Angostura 15y agoOfftopic, but ex-British journalist here. Every styleguide I've seen over here says 'companies are singular'.
