See the story on the right top of the homepage. I was inspired by Channel 9 on United Airlines which lets you listen into the cockpit communications as you fly.
For more see "Who we are" -
and if you were looking at the homepage sitting upright.. and not upside down like lenn, then it would be in your upper left

Because space is not supported in domain names... and microsoftsucks.com is taken -
I am just curious, if you think MS sucks, why are you here???
You actually think that by posting MS bashing rants is going to somehow affect what they do? This site is about sharing information and ideas with MICROSOFT.
Once again folks here's a news flash:
This site is about MICROSOFT, it's products and the people who develop and use them.
If you hate Microsoft then that's fine, but do it where someone will listen to you...</yawns>

Thanks Knute, you saved me a lot of typing.

I actually enjoy the opposing, well thought out, opinions. If your customers don't complain, you'll fail because you aren't getting enough feedback. Microsoft has it really great because even people who aren't customers complain!
The only thing that annoys me is the silly "microsoft sucks" or "when will you get a real browser" or "make everything free" responses.
Someone doesn't need to agree with me for me to respect them and their opinion!

And that's a respectable opinion to have. Thanks for reminding us of that.
From what I've seen so far though, this site has some of the best MindShare of any forum I've been a member of. I'd hate to see it tainted by having gomers
running round saying "M$ sucks!" while not providing anything of use to the community whatsoever.
Still, everyone wins when level-heads prevail. A well thoughout, even if opposing, point of view is a key ingredient to any forum with any life in it. -
I am not againest Microsoft...
I am just suggesting an idea for a new name since I have seen a lot of bagging going on around these parts. -
Hey guys,
Don't feed the trolls.
