BTW, have you noticed the ONLY reason offered in this post to go back
to MS is that now "they're listening"?
So we should change once again JUST because MS is listening? Why?
What are they offering besides a "listening" that they can end any
time they want to? What are they offering, that we don't already
have, that might justify the expense of moving back and the risk that
they once again stop listening some time in the future?
I have noticed businesses listening in the past. Too many times,
that is all they do. You are given an opportunity to state your
grievance, and then they have other customers to help. Listening
without action is a waste of time.
So what? Isn't bankruptcy a waste of time? Let's us ask Enron.
Medium or small companies operated by their owners may think this way.
It is the old way, owners being proud of their company and trying to
make it better. But corporate companies? It's just a bunch of directives
concerned only with their own interests, not the company's. And they do
right, because the company will fire them at a moment's notice, as soon
as it is convenient. So why wouldn't they also look to their own interests?
I think the whole corporate system is rotten. It cannot and will not
function properly, it is just a way for slippery smart people to make
some fast money. Companies should be directed by their owners, by people
who will be hurt if the company goes down, only then will the system work.
Until that time, all your notions of companies doing the convenient or
proper thing are a waste of time. Because the people running the company
are not the company and don't care about wasting the company's time,
just about their own interests.
So once again. Why would we expect MS to keep on listening long enough
to make it worth our while to migrate back? And what would be the added
benefits to this migration? After all, the people we've migrated to are
also listening so you'll have to do much better than that.
