I am definitely not a M$ fan, but I dislike their ways they treat costumers and it has nothing to do with their programmers. Some of their programs are really cool and I am quite sure that many of them are not happy about the way Microsoft goes. But there is one important lesson. M$ is a very important player in XSL and XML area. WE MUST PRESS ON THEM TO REALLY COMPLY WITH STANDARDS. I am convinced that XML and XSL will succeeded without MS, but much faster with MS.
