That makes me wonder how easy it is to just hide certain features during the review process.

Of course, despite being employed by a giant corp myself, i'd like to think that i'm not completely amoral :) But I have become very cynical of any sort of corporate gymnastics done in order to justify their actions. A future wher

I don't think having one in the past should be a "get out of jail" free pass for future offenses.

That list mostly strengthens my impressions tbh. Aside from Xbox, can't say I know any person that is really excited by any of those products. I am surprised that MS seems to fly under the anti-trust radar nowadays and I wonder how muc

What good products are they making? Haven't used any of their products in ages but I still get the impression that no one really enjoys their products (excluding excel maybe?)
