Wow Microsoft apperantly wants you to hear loads and loads of crap until your ears fall off.

Here is the truth.

*Micrsoft have currently problem to get youngsters interestested in developing software whith Visual Basic and such too. Why ?
Because now adays no one can easily copy it and learn from it. Who is the winner. GCC, C++ , PHP, Perl and other open software solutions.

*How can increased revinue for Microsoft give more jobs to a city. Short answer it can't. Microsoft only developes one copy of there software and duplicates it. Rather easy hey. So the numbers are just pure lies.

*Look at the reverse way instead. How much could a city / Country save if they did throw out all commercial software. 3bn in Sweden according to some analytics. Sweden is a very small country so wow do that in US/ UK or any other country and it will crush those fake numbers...

Microsoft if you shall lie.Atleast do it good
