I just can't believe Google's hypocrisy, can you?

Once again Microsoft brings the best of themselves...

Can everybody please STOP buying Microsoft products?!?!?!

And I ask myself, how is possible people sell up to 50% of their companies for 2p??? I love the program, learn a lot but come on guys!!! tougher on them.

There are quite a lot of strange people going to the Dragon's Den for exposure, business and what not but I am still waiting to see certain products, like a device to turn your baby on/off.

I wonder how the children of those MPAA people must feel at school when someone asks what do their fathers do... sure it is highly embarrassing.

Seems to me the new session of The Apprentice is coming quite strong with mad ideas, ridiculous projects and people I would not trust my company to.

I just can believe what I read, McDonalds has filled a patent application to patent sandwich making, if it wasn't so damn serious would be a matter of the biggest laugh in history along with the Amazon One-Click patent (actually given already).

If this does not prove the whole patent system is a pile of old rubbish please someone explain me this because I am about to jump of the train.

Have a look for yourself.
