Microsoft is also the 3rd most admired company in the world (according to Fortune magazine)
http://www.fortune.com/indexw.jhtml?channel=artcol.jhtml&doc_id=00000571
 
If you are not happy with MSFT, then show them with your wallet.  That's pretty much all they understand on a macro level. 
They also have, I don't know, 80,000 employees?  I'm guessing.  Most of them consider it direspectful and take references to $ signs personally.  While to some it seems they do not have a sense of humour, some of them are also known to grace lists such as this one.
 
Per$onally, I think it'$ all $illy. 
 
Drew?  Is this you?

and that is a fully valid, reasonable argument.  Putting a $ instead of an S isn't.

Michele,
 
Did you read this article that Sean pointed us to?

http://www.computerworld.com/cwi/story/0,1199,NAV47_STO61803,00.html

And this one?
 
 
I've gotten a boatload of announcements from Microsoft about their new plan, urging me to lock in the upgrade advantage now, etc. etc. ...
 
The bottom line is, Microsoft's new License 6.0 program will cut off our previously perpetual access to upgrade pricing on new versions, forcing us to buy subscriptions if we want access to new versions without paying full price.
 
I'm not happy with MS
 
- Bob

What?  You love MS?  Are you happy about their new software extortion plan?
