Because it's Microsoft. They infect everything they touch, and Allchin has a bit of a ... reputation. This is I.T., thus there is no love. All we have left is hate. Now piss off.

If the semi albino nuisance had anything to do with Vista then he should be dragged through the streets and kicked to death.

I don't know if this has been reported here yet, but have a look at the microsoft TuneSmith add see how much they know about music - ie nothing.

well, we know how well actors do at acting as A Senile President.

And I think the jury's still out on actors acting as Governator...

"He has dumped IT entirely, having capped his 17 years with Microsoft by delivering Windows Vista in 2006."

And that's nothing like going out on a high note...

I'm not sure my CD Player is a high enough spec to play this.

Neil Diamond and soul? Never thought I'd hear those words in any kind of proximity.

A bit like Phil Collins claiming he invented rap.

Gotta hand it to him--you won't find Justin Timberlake singing about the Enigma machines. Or will you?

"Kick It" and "Enigma Machine" kick butt. And don't forget Allchin is the guy that got fed up and left Microsoft. He did SQL Server, Windows Server, etc. before. I think there is some untold story about his leaving. From what I've read in old email, he's a very smart guy that just had had enough. Read any of that Capable stuff? Allchin was the one fighting for the right thing.
