I am curious to see whatever comes of the EU commission investigation regarding Microsoft.

I recently switched from MS Office to OpenOffice.  I am never paying for MS bloat-ware again.

Real player is a piece of garbage, and Real Media are a bunch of lowlifes.

Why would I use realplayer anyway?
Can't even change brightness without registering it(!?)
Why would I pay for it? it sucks and theres better FREEWARE players around.

RealNetworks, do a favor for the customers: get lost! :D

Realplayer has been removed from all my PCs for some time now.  Bloated spyware POS is the only good things I can say about it.

Mikey...open office is not so good.

We tried it and folded.

Everyone uses 'McWord' ... almost a good case for a monopoly.
