Ah, yes! The 'who-you-gonna-sue' argument! Tell us, when was the last time you sued M$ for causing $BILLIONS worth of damage because of "certified" code? You use code you can pay for, but get LESS security, and NO accountability. Yet you feel safe and secure, because the box has a name on it.

When was the last time you sent a bill to M$ to cover the expenses of repairing a database, or lost revenue, or the cost of system upgrades because of the short-comings of the software? When was the last time you "had someone to go after"? So, you had a name and a corporate face, but what did that get you?
