Maybe you aren't enough of a capitalist.
Capital involves more than just money. It is a system for allowing
the market to decide who deserves what kind of compensation.
What M$ did wasn't capitalism, it was robbery.
They lied, cheated, and mislead, in order to get their money.
Capitalism uses the law of supply and demand, among others.
M$ deliberately perverted these laws, in order to get more
money than what capitalism would have awarded them.
BTW, I use M$ software, and like some of it. Not everything
they do is ****.
