And how would you like that foot done, Monsieur Ballmer?

@ MacSmiley

Shaken, not stirred? More like fast and deep.

What a maroon.

How does a schmuck like that end up running a company in this day and age. What a joke.

Bueller?

Where the hell is everyone? I don't normally post much but today I feel like I must pick up the slack.

How can you be out enjoying the weekend when it's as cold as a witch's tit out there.

72F is cold?

Must be a west coast thing. It's only 8:30 here, we are all still a bit hung over I guess.

Witch's tit, good one. I saw one once when my grade 5 teacher had an untimely slip. Scared the living s#@t out of me.

Ballmer's testimony:

Developers, Developers, Developers, Developers,
Developers, Developers, Developers, Developers,
Developers, Developers, Developers, Developers
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
WAAAAAAAA![/url]


That's why the judge set a time limit of 3 hours.

Unfortunately for my wife and I, our machines probably will NOT run Snow Leopard. We have a PowerMac G5 (64 bit, non iNtel) and the first gen MacBooks (dual core, 32 bit only). All great computers.

Disappointing for us but we know that technology marches on and the line must be drawn somewhere. Since the machines do not stop working whenever Snow Leopard is released, we'll be good.

Peace.

I'm going to pull me up a chair and get some popcorn, because this should be entertaining.

As with Lurker_PCV, my Imac G5 won't run Snow Leopard and at least Apple didn't try to convince me that it would. Let's get Ballmer's fat butt in front of a judge and jury at some point and see if he'll lie thru his teeth or use some fancy semantics to convince people that MS wasn't being deceptive.

Anybody have tickets? I'm willing to pay top dollar to see the master lay the smackdown on the crybabies who whine about Vista. And that also goes for you smug MAC sissies who think you're so superior with your cobbled together 30-year old toy operating system.

These little girls just don't get it. The awesome thing about Vista is you have choice. You can put up to 7 flavors of the latest version of magnificent Windows on countless variations of hardware at multiple price points. You MAC lemmings have no idea. Give it to 'em Steve. Never surrender!

I'm a PC.

Your potential. Our passion.™

Where would you like the foot Mr. Ballmer? In you mouth or your butt? This moron does not know how to run a company.

Zune Tang is a mac person trying to egg us on to get the discussion flowing.

I have to remind you that you are not allowed to use the word Vista anymore. Its Windows only now

Hey ZT,

I really am a PC but I use a PowerMac and a MacBook as my computers. (I so want to submit an "ad" like that to Microsoft.) How about you - the REAL you - not the ZT persona?

Side note - my 6th grade teacher always use to say, "Stop being a PC! Of course she meant a Public Clown. I always wanted her to say that to me; she never did. I suppose I should carried on more.

MDN - why are the following topics located at the bottom of your website:

How to Download Vista from Microsoft's Website
How to Choose the Best Video Card with Upgrade to Vista
How to Upgrade Windows Vista Business to Ultimate

Peace.

By special ruling of the court:

"Ballmer must remain standing while he testifies".


(No chair's - get it?)

Please don't use an apostrophe when making a plural. That makes it possessive. Just chairs will be fine.

*What a maroon.

How does a schmuck like that end up running a company in this day and age. What a joke.*

I thought the same thing about Palin!!! Fortunately she really doesn't get to run anything truly significant. And probably not much for long.

Incidentally, I didn't mean that to imply that Alaska is insignificant, but compared to the Federal Government .........

Ahh- monkey boy forced to leave the courtroom in a prison jumpsuit and shackles. Now THAT would be the ultimate Christmas present.

Will the juge see the tongue of that self-sufficient guy?

It will be interesting to see how Ballmer's confession, uh testimony will compare to Bill Gates during the antitrust case.

By the way ZT when Bill Gates went to court on the antitrust case, his "smackdown" contributed to Microsoft being convicted of an abusive monopolist.

The judge got it then, most likely it will happen again.

I want to see Ballmer and Gene Simmons in a tongue off with Pamela Anderson as judge and jury.

Now, that's my kinda court!

His lawyers will tell him to answer either "yes" or "no" and nothing more. He's a salesman first and he'll open his big mouth and then the lawyers will have fun.

Can he get by without perjuring himself? It amounts to how much time he has to unlearn all that he learned since leaving college... years and years of doublespeaking means he's in deep doodoo. The quotes that'll come out of this will be MDN fodder for years.
