In due course, Microsoft will not longer be able to afford to pay for
its shilcosystem. I would imagine that the fringe shills will suffer
first, but the rot, as it did for Rome, will gradually work back to the
centre. I expect that the shills here will be some of the first to be
cut from the budget, which will free even more time to work on real
advocacy, although it could be argued that the need for same will fall
over time.
Homer's post was excellent, probably should be appended to the FAQ.
