One thing I find interesting is that though the Consitution guarantees the 
right to Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness, these companies seem to 
think that somewhere in there is also the guarantee to make money.
However, it doesn't stop there either.  Not only do they believe that they are 
owed the *right* to make money, but that they are guaranteed this right
for all of eternity.

No one ever promised anyone that they would be able to make money here, no did 
they guarantee that if you do, that it will last !  Tell that to MS, though!
