Message to Microsoft: You can’t buy cool

04 February 2008 in Internet, Notes by Stilgherrian | 4 comments

My commentary on Microsoft’s bid for Yahoo! has been published in Crikey. It’s behind the paywall, but a free trial is available. I’ll write a public piece tomorrow.

    prob not behind the paywall as it is in the Squatters’ Edition this arvo.

    And you call that a “Disclosure” ??? Surely a better disclosure would be “Microsoft Evangalizers have
    a. Not Taken Me Out For Outrageous Gastronomic Bribes Yet, or
    b. Outrageous Gastronomic Bribe Gave Me Hepatis A / Gastro so
    I’m pissed off with them”

    :-)

    (ps – I agree that this definition of “Better” is open to discussion; was probably thinking “Colourful” rather than “More Accurate”, but heck; nothing wrong with colour, huh? Unless u asked mum’s accountant…)

    @Bernard: Oh, correct, the article is not behind the paywall, it’s free for all to read.

    Actually Microsoft has taken me out for amazing gastronomic bribes. Well, one bribe. Perhaps it’s time they bribed me further. (Hi, Nick!)

    If the Richmond [Stilgherrian corrects: Redmond] Deathstar are inviting u for Gastronomic temptations, then I suggest u need an Ubuntu Warrior as foodtester….
