MicroSoft only Hayes modems, MicroSoft only HP printers, Microsoft only Pentium processors (think about it, Intel provides "hidden" performance features to MicroSoft that are not available to the general PC software writing community), MicroSoft only Apple Computers and now, MicroSoft only monitors. I guess the 'investment' MicroSoft makes in politicans has been very effective in holding-off the US Anti-Trust arm of the inJustice department. I only hope that soon there will be some MicroSoft toilet paper so we can wipe-off some of this stuff MicroSoft is dumping on us. Yes, I know. Not in the FreeBSD mailing lists... sorry.
