The whole thing sounds like a ridiculous PR piece. Microsoft is changing the world, I tell you, by trying to get a piece of the pie of someone changing the world.
- MikeCapone 14y agoThat's exactly my feeling as well. Looks like MSFT's PR people shadow-wrote this piece.
- focusfocusfocus 14y agoYou've made a strong allegation. Can you explain it, considering this statement at the end of the article? > (Reporting by Bill Rigby in Seattle; Editing by Jonathan Weber and Richard Chang)
- ryanhuff 14y agoThe writer is based in Seattle, and predominately writes on topics related to Washington state, including a healthy dose of Microsoft-related stories (not always rosy). http://blogs.reuters.com/bill-rigby http://blogs.reuters.com/bill-rigby

- huggyface 14y agohttp://www.paulgraham.com/submarine.html http://www.paulgraham.com/submarine.html Have you read that? Even if the piece wasn't written by Microsoft's PR, the fact that it's written by someone with a heavily vested interest in the health of the Redmond colossus slants it in such a way that makes it generally worthless for those outside of Seattle.
