Replying to Thomas Corriher above:

Quote: " ... As a general rule in life, we should see those people who use fear to manipulate us are the ones we actually should be the most afraid of ... "

In another context, Thomas, such people would be referred to as "terrorists" - in other words, for fear to be induced, something MUST be threatened; and for a threat to be effective, the possibility of it being carried out must be believed. Thus, for terror to be successfully 'installed' intot the 'terrified', the 'terrorist' must be a believeable nasty piece of work - which effectively describes Microsoft!
