[geeks] GAH! City of Austin Vs. Microsoft

[Gary Nichols]

I think their compliance with Micro$hit's demand was "Pay us $X and use no
other OS, or pay us $X^2".

I take great pleasure in reading CNN Money today:

"Microsoft sends a mixed message
Software leader falls short on 3Q profit, expects sales to fall even further
in current quarter."

Burn baby.... FSCKING BURN.  Of course, they have several billion to burn...
could be a long, smokey fire.

Smokey... hmmmmm reminds me of..... BBQ!
