Oh I get it - you're an American author posting on a British website where it's already passed midday on April Fools' Day. Good one.

Shouldn't you be writing movie scripts rather than bite the hand that feeds IT?? Awesome read and gr8 humour! But a little harsh on the big philanthropist.

The Register attracts pedants. It's aimed at the computing industry = pedants. My suggestion is that, next year, when The Register prints April Fools stories from the US, it prints them at one minute past midnight EST. Otherwise the stories are post-midday in the UK, and you'll get a barrage of complaints from pedants.

I prefered articles about Visual Studio for Linux and Microsoft buying Sun (Computer - not the big yellow burny thing).

All the information was in front of me the whole time. I can't believe that I didn't put it all together.

Why not buy the ACTUAL Sun? Charge everyone royalties for having sunlight? Isn't that pretty close to what Microsoft is doing now?
You want a sunny day, Microsoft will get you one for a silly fee of $1,000,000 or so. Winter in the northern hemisphere on July 30? No problem, get your governments together and for a small fee (your GNP/10 sounds about right) We'll do it for you. There might be a small delay in releasing "Winter 2.0", but 6 months isn't too bad.
Sounds like a winner!
