RE: [ActiveDir] OT: M$

I believe we all know that your statement is correct “like any other big company they are out to make $”, what I inferred from what she was implying (did I get that right?J) is that although we all know that Microsoft is not perfect (…anyone want to cast the first stone?)…a grey-toned comment made on this mailing list is probably not appreciated…especially when this mailing list is used to help others.  I’m sure there are a myriad of other forums to take your personal opinions to.        --vC   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Condra, Jerry W Mr HP Sent: Thursday, November 09, 2006 11:41 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: M$   I have a mostly positive view of M$ and like their products.
