Out of all the perfectly legitimate reasons to hate Microsoft you choose those
You could have chosen:
-The fact they charge an insane amount of money for their software
-The fact they use parts from Foxconn, who's working conditions are so bad they make employees sign an "Anti-Suicide Pact"
-The fact they treat indie developers worse than crap
but no
you choose that
just wow |

"If it wasn't for Microsoft we wouldn't have what we're using today like computers laptops so and so"
Microsoft didn't invent the first computer. They didn't even make the first modern computer. They revolutionized it, yes, but they are not responsible for it. |

Microsoft needs more and more money, they make stupid features.
"But it was made for fun."

when you own close to all of the OS market share, they can pretty much do whatever they want
-The fact they use parts from Foxconn, who's working conditions are so bad they make employees sign an "Anti-Suicide Pact"
who the hell DOESNT use foxconn
-The fact they treat indie developers worse than crap
indie developers don't deserve special treatment

"who the hell DOESNT use foxconn"
people with common sense and who actually want their products to be quality
"indie developers don't deserve special treatment"
didn't say they did but they don't deserve to be charged $40,000 for one patch |

"I didn't say they did invent the first computer. "
But you are saying, or at least unintentionally implying, that they invented the first modern/consumer computer. This is not correct. IBM and another company I cannot remember the name of made the first consumer computer. |
