  Micr0$0ft is interested ONLY in their bottom line, and feel they have the
RIGHT to tell you what OS and browser you should run...and refuse to accept the
fact that "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".

  You know it angers them no end that folks are running OS's like MacIntosh
(Apple) and Linux, using browsers like Google Chrome and Firefox rather than
Internet Explorer (or whatever the deal is now in Windows 10), and using search
engines such as Google Chrome rather than Bing.

  Besides, not everyone is loaded with money. I myself am disabled, and on a
fixed income, dealing with medical bills for surgeries, procedures, etc. right
now. So, I don't have extra money to throw around.

  In that regard, Comcast Cable called today with a telemarketer having a heavy
foreign accent, trying to get me to take advantage of a new special, which
would cost me more. I finally told him "I guess you don't understand English. I
said I can't afford to upgrade my cable service, and may have to reduce what I
have soon, due to medical bills...good day", and hung up on him.

  Believe me, if I wanted to upgrade, and could afford to, I would. That
applies to OS's, cable TV setups, etc. Also, when I purchased my copy of
Windows 7 32-bit from Amazon, I likely got it much cheaper than what Microsoft
originally sold it for...I think I paid around $70, with shipping.

  And, I've never been one to download the OS when it first came out...the bugs
still with it made it have more holes in it than a pair of old underwear...and
it stinks about as much. :P
