"As someone whose memory of perceived past technological betrayals and injustices is so keen that I still find myself unwilling to have a Microsoft game console in the house..."
I wonder how many war refugees from that era feel the same way. I won an xbox and gave it away to charity because I didn't want it in my house either.
- brianwillis 14y agoI certainly do feel that way. The market has handed Microsoft several monopolies. Many times they've squandered those opportunities, leaving a bunch of pissed off customers in their wake. I don't really see any evidence that anything has changed recently at Redmond.
