Everyone must understand that that Jonbo is a player hater. He dislikes Microsoft for 2 reasons:

1) He affilliates the XBox with Windows, which is a mistake.

2) Its the cool thing to do.

The fact is that Microsoft isn't successful merely because they are bullies. MS basically revolutionized home computing and were the first software developers to take the idea of "a computer in every home" seriously. They do make a quality product.

Does it have bugs? Yes, but its also about 20 times more complex and advanced that the Mac operating system. Windows gives you more options and abilities. The truth is that a lot of non MS products flat out suck. People scream about Linux, but who the hell outside of the computer industry or culture want to learn how to use that? No one.

But I digress. In short if Jonbo wants to hold some infantile grudge against MS for Windows and not buy an XBox, thats fine by me. Its his loss.

Myself, I actually play video games FOR THE GAMES... not the politics.
