Microsoft is just trying to get everybody locked in to their proprietary format.

Our patent system is broken, and msft is exploiting it, simple as that.
If somebody stole a real invention that would be one thing. But we both know that msft patents have almost nothing to do with real inventions.

Trillions of gallons of fresh water are gone for good.
Seems like they are singling out one search engine to be treated differently than others. Hard for me to see how that is fair. Just because Google has been successful, is no reason that the law should not be applied evenly. I guess that is how Europe "thinks."
I don't know if any US president has ever over-stepped his authority as constantly as Obama.

IMO: knowing how to use Facebook, and how to take selfies, is not my idea of a technology guru.
Learning MS-Office is not learning "computer science" anymore than learning to use the copy machine is electrical engineering.
Maybe we should "computer usage skills" or something?
A course in algorithms is computer science, not learning to use MS-Windows.
It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
