The 'new' Microsoft? I still wouldn't touch them with a barge pole

WTF?

Re: What!!!

Visual Studio => Brilliant way to force .Net versions, no major innovations for years, useless changes in UI (hoooo the bckground color is now dark-blue instead of grey and all menus switched places!

Windows as an OS : Obvious decline, now 1 out of 3 versions is barely usable (xp, 7), still bulky, slow, shit packaged, disrespect its user, becoming worse and worse

Programming languages : shit piles above shit piles. Anyone who compared the assembly output of a native code and a .net code knows for a fact .Net code is on average 3-5 times slower for any program that remotely do anything useful (that mean a simple nearly empty for loop doesn't count)

Services : Pay for my servers so I can leak your metadata (or outright data in certain cases) to marketing, information companies/agencies

IIS : http://gwan.ch/benchmark Nothing to add.

Office : The *useful* parts already existed on word processor that ran on my Atari ST. The rest is a quagmirish nightmare.

SSRS : Anyone who used it know it makes one curse at an abnormal rate

SSIS : nice concept gone wrong
