Apart from the fact that it's difficult just to figure out what you
exactly mean, the parts that I do understand make no sense at all.
From what I understand you're saying that Google is siding with MS
because they aren't supporting Win 2k... Well that's just nonsense for
the following reasons (among others):
- Google is making a browser that directly competes with Microsoft
- Google's browser will also run on Mac and Linux
- The choice to not support Win2k was most likely based on the fact that:
- The Win2k userbase is <5%
- Win2k doesn't have support for some of the security features in Chromium
- Including support for Win2k would mean Google needs to spend
much more money on testing and development
- Perhaps some of the libraries that Chromium depends on are also
no longer supported on Win2k, and backporting them would take even
more time/money.
So just shut up and either stop using Windows 2000, and install some
decent operating system (like Ubuntu) ;-) or just don't use Google
Chrome.
Or at least stop inventing stupid conspiracy theories.
