Well there's no shortage of material ... several court cases, including
nearly 3GB of data in the Iowa case alone. The Xbox Guerilla advertising
was also quite infamous (including their sabotage of Sony's PS3 launch).
Then of course there's the plague of Microsoft "evangelists" right here
on COLA. Plamondon could probably base an entire book on just Fuddie's
lies; excuses; apologies and unjustifiable drooling for the Vole and its
Slopware. Then there's pickle-brain Neanderthals like DooFuS and Quark -
he could save that for the dark-humour section.
