Have you tried it to make a conclusion that it will disrupt something? No, you just "hate" it. That's plain old bias.

Yes, I had it installed for some time. I don't remember the exact problems I had with it, but there were problems.

As for bias, I think I have the normal level of it wrt Microsoft. Everyone have it. (Oh, and you should note that I competed with MS. Add this to your bias-detector.)

Anyway, why we're discussing me and my bias? Re-read my original post. Any objections? State them, and please exclude me from the picture, and stop trolling.

We're discussing bias because it's always the case whenever someone's new stuff is being discussed on HN: it's very interesting to see how people's opinion changes by mere knowledge of where that new stuff is coming from.
