Yeah I listed one pro and three cons, that is definitely a pro MS post. According to you, anyone who says anything good about MS or Google is a shill. Glad we aren't living anymore in the 90's M$-hate slashdot era.

>resurgence

If 8+% market share is "resurgence", I have no idea what you are going to say about Firefox or Ubuntu Mobile OS.

"posts" would connote more than one, correct?

also, good job with that strawman you put up there. you sure knocked it down real well.

Yes, the same applies for you calling everyone who doesn't share your view a "shill". So according to my posts, I am pro MS, pro Firefox, anti Chrome, pro Google etc. I sure hope I dint invalidate the "pro MS" with the cons this time. Has it every occurred to you that maybe people talk positively or negatively about product X or Y, not because they are a shill, but because they can relate to it or have some experience with it? I humbly request you to change your mindset from the pre-2000 slashdot era, grow up and stop calling everyone who doesn't share the same views as you a "shill".

Check out your Argumentum Ad Hominem! [1]

> "shill"

> shill

> "shill"

are you quoting me when you say "shill"? where did I use that word? If I didn't use it, doesn't that make this a Strawman Fallacy? [2]

>I humbly request you to change your mindset from the pre-2000 slashdot era

Perfect example of Association Fallacy [3].

> grow up

followed by an Appeal to emotion! nice! [4]
