That’s the mindset that will only hurt consumers, poor people and will only benefit Apple and more expensive competitors.īeware that, MS bashers are not really hurting MS, they are actually hurting consumers, us. If MS contributes better technology, it becomes anti-competitive, if they contribute this technology, it is still anti-competitive against more expensive Apple products, and yet they critize MS for providing this technology. They probably never made a contribution themselves. They find Windows 95 to worthy to support, but they don’t find Windows 3.1 worthy to give to poor schools.Īlso note that, these bashers usually don’t propose an alternative solution. Bashers came up with the idea that, MS has to support Windows 95 because there are people still use that.
Just to point how stupid these MS bashers are, and the fact that they always critize MS no matter what, just remember the news that Office 11 wouldn’t support Windows 95. I think it is despicable to critize Microsoft to bash them for providing this help to people. He also doesn’t even talk about the fact that these schools are too poor to afford computers.Īnyone who downgrades Windows 3.1 to bash Microsoft is ignorant, cause there are people out there who are so poor that they would like to have at least this technology. He seems to compare windows 3.1 with Mac os X. He complains that this is a shot to the Apple’s market share, which is already eroding without this donation, but then he also complains about the quality of the equipment. If he complains about the amount of money available, then why he doesn’t contribute himself to this cause. Maybe this is the best solution overall, given the amount of money available. He also doesn’t consider or explain how this money is settled for this donation, and why Windows 3.1 and old computers are selected. He seems to know how to best spend money of Microsoft, as if he is the accountant of the company. What he essentially says is that, if MS has lots of money they should have bought better equipment. You’re telling me a company with forty billion dollars in cash reserves cannot afford to at least extend new PC’s? Really, the Apple angle is incidental, but the level of equipment MS’s supposedly generous offering would extend is beyond contempt. Here is one funny statement.Ī wonderful offering by Microsoft to donate thousands of ancient PC’s running Windows 3.1 or even (gasp) Windows 95 to schools all across America in a move that would not only seed America’s education system with a plethora of outdated, useless equipment but (coincidentally) take shots at Apple’s market share. The author is one of the authors who enjoy bashing Microsoft, and make money out of it.
