You're quite welcome, glad we could entertain you :)

Now I wouldn't say that. You can say plenty of positive things about MS here
(be quiet Ben ;)
MS has done amazing things with easily usable, use friendly interfaces. They
have one of the most feature rich Office Suites available on the market
(despite the fact it's riddled with security holes). They've introduced
computing to the "common person". They've done a lot of good, positive
things. Unfortunately, the negative seems to vastly outweigh the postive.
If were just so simple as their software were bloated, slow, and inflexible,
you'd probably not see as much animosity aimed at them. However, those 3
things are just the cornerstones they've decided to build upon. There's a
whole skyscraper's worth of other things :)

Well, there are meetings all over the place, check the calendar at the
website, and feel free to drop in to any one of them. And feel free to ask
questions on the list, that's what we're here for :)
