They say the Wii is the real threat. Gates stated this not so long ago. Ever
since it became evident, based on two research studies from MS-loving firms
(IDC and NPD), that Wii is going to wiin (sic). Whether Microsoft is truly
concerned about PS3 because of Blu-ray's potential, who knows? Microsoft
said that the PS3 is 2-3 years ahead of its time. What the hell does that
mean? It was mentioned in a controversial article two days ago... with
Microsoft's affiliation undisclosed *cough* *cough*. Well, I guess Microsoft
_is_ the press, after all, so nothing need be mentioned. It should be
assumed. Recent eye-opening stories:

That's right!! Microsoft could not get its 'monopoly enabler' approved by
governments (it received strong rejections), so it pulled a dirty trick and
sent its shills to vote. I haven't a clue how this is possible. This sort of
corruption can only happen in third-world countries, wouldn't you have
thought? It makes a lot of people very angry. A company is still controlling
the world using political manipulation, without being punished.
