| You just don't what Microsoft brought into this subject.
|
|
| [...]
|
| It seems as if Microsoft employees comment regularly in Microsoft's favor
| on this board. How may times have we read how great Visa is, or how good
| Windows 7 will be?
|
| Why shouldn't people working for other corporations do the same? Honesty
| and truth have nothing to do with business and marketing. Only money
| counts.
|
| [...]
|
| I find it very hard to believe that Microsoft would stoop so low as to
| actually pay people to support their view on any internet forum.
|
| NO company is that bad. Paying people to do that could be considered
| dishonest.

Is MS Preening in Public Posts?
,----[ Quote ]
| The author of the email, posted on ZDNet in a Talkback forum on the Microsoft
| antitrust trial, claimed her name was Michelle Bradley and that she
| had "retired" from Microsoft last week.
|
| "A verbal memo [no email allowed] was passed around the MS campus encouraging
| MS employee's to post to ZDNet articles like this one," the email said.
|
| "The theme is 'Microsoft is responsible for all good things in computerdom.'
| The government has no right to prevent MS from doing anything. Period.
| The 'memo' suggests we use fictional names and state and to identify
| ourselves as students," the author claimed.
