Microsoft: Feed the crocodile and it will soon feed on you...
This is most amusing. Give a person enough rope and they will soon hang
themselves. MicroSoft, which can't write clean code or a stable,
effective operating system is targeting the Anti-virus market.
Personally I hope that MS does lock out the Anti-virus software vendors
and then tries to handle their own problems. This would be most
amusing. I would give the company 18 months to live if they did.
