No, I'm afraid I stopped caring about what Microsoft does long ago. I have a Windows 7 install on my desktop, but it only has games on it and I almost never boot it any more.

Unfortunately I am cursed with a long memory and I keep grudges forever, and I'm old enough to remember the old Microsoft with the patent threats against Linux and the illegal monopoly abuse practices.

The "new" Microsoft still abuses patents against Linux and Android, so you don't have that long memory for that.

Oh, but they started the "intellectual property" threats way before Android was even an internal alpha.

Oh dear. Is that the new benchmark for "old" now? Are there people here who don't remember that??
