The pace of organizations, municipalities and governments leaving Microsoft is accelerating. There is no doubt of that. Wouldn’t you agree Cult of Microsoft? Maybe it’s time you should start thinking about a different line of activity. Advocating for Microsoft is basically, at this point and from now on, a losers game.
You’ve earned my scorn. I’ll be laughing at you at each bump in the road. What a bunch of idiots you are. Losers advocating for a has-been company.
Microsoft players are LOSE-LOSE. All the OEM’s that relied on the M$ statuesque to continue, are in for a rude awaking.
