I thing an M$ car would be WAY worse than the Yugo.  Very few people have been killed in a yugo 
because they pushed in the cigarette lighter and had the spare tire explode!

I think the reason most knowledgable people don't like muckrosoft software is because we spend so 
much time dealing with the problems over and over and over. . . when we could be out there doing 
new and cool stuff.  

Trust me, no improvement in software quality will put I/T out of work.  Too many people don't want 
to understand what makes computers tick.  In 20 years, the only problem I have had in getting work 
was always getting way too much!
