Before this gets out of hand let me point out:
1) I too work in an IT department and use microsoft products and don't want
to
get blown up.
2) This happened at 5am, no employees were in the building.
3) The four security gaurds in the building were not injured.
4) The bomb went off away from the building in a field near it and no there
was
no structural damage.
5) The bomb was probably not even related to Mircosoft but to the chaos in
South Africa.
The reason i can chuckle is BECAUSE nobody was hurt and I believe that it
probably
doesn't even have anything to do with Microsoft being Microsoft.
