Fuck Microsoft

KMFMS is an acronym for Kein Mitleid Für MicroSoft, which is German for 'no pity for Microsoft.'

So what's so bad about Microsoft anyway?

From a Software User's Perspective: Bloat, Backward incompatibility, Perpetual upgrading, Vaporware, Hostile treatment of customers, Predatory practices, Bundling of inferior products, Insecurity, Bugs bugs and more bugs.

From a Technical Perspective: Closed "standards", Mutilation of existing standards and Lack of innovation.

From the Perspective of Everybody Else: Attempts at taking over appliance markets, Attempts at buying the public's trust and Outright deception.

Common Defenses of Microsoft Debunked: Microsoft is ahead because their products are superior and Microsoft should not be punished for its success.
