I think its a general rule that anytime you derisively mock someone's name with these snide, "clever" puns--or whatever you want to call them--any argument you could make is ignored.

Agreed. I'd have to say pejorative puns are on-par with scare quotes for signaling lack of substance.

Whereas "me too" filler comments signal something of substance, shame that signal is not a good one.

It was new to me and was worth a wry grin.

You forgot to call them M$; that's how people know to take you seriously.

Good point - we have enough of troutlook, sexchange, internet exploder, and all the other crappy products they hawk.

> internet exploder

You mean the "Chrome/Firefox Install Downloader"? But that's a great product for what is was made for!

Don't forget lookout express.

And their product is Windoze

Maybe for the company. The correct term for the "OS" (or more like glorified program loader, amirite) is, of course, `Mickey$loth WinDOS'.
