Dear Mr. Microsoft,
Nintendo and Mac should be honoured you find their stuff so good that you have to steal it.
When I first saw Windows Vista all I could see was a very basic… and I do mean basic… version of the Leopard operating system for Mac. There was nothing new or special about your product. The more I looked the more it became blatantly obvious that someone at Microsoft had been paid to look at Leopard and pick out the bits they thought the public liked more than others. Come on people, at least Win95 was unique! Okay okay so Win95 was basically just an improved version of IBM O/S 10 but lets face it, no one had heard of it or used it properly to warrant you getting found out. Sadly, now the Mac user is on the rise you’re on the verge of looking stupid when you release new and innovative software which is really just copied – and done badly at that.
So, you try to make out that you’re the best because you’ve got a new bit of software but really but people in the industry know you’re just big liars.
Now I’m not one of those Mac people that thinks everyone should use a Mac! Heaven forbid! I’d have nothing to complain about for a start and what would happen to being elitist then? I will admit that PC’s do some things better… but only because the software hasn’t been written for the Mac yet*. I do, however, think that credit should be given where it’s due.
So Mr. Microsft CEO, I think it’s high time you said a massive thank you to Mac for giving you the building blocks of Vista and another thank you to Nintendo, seeing as how you stole the Mii and stuck on the Xbox 360, as well as giving the 360 a new Mac looking/based operating system.
Microsoft, I love PC’s as much as I love Mac as essentially they are all the same thing but you make me angry with your plagiaristic ways. There is nothing wrong with PC’s, nothing at all, Microsoft is the problem – the big problem.
You bunch of wankers. Did Gates retire because he was ashamed – I think so!
I hope this letter finds you well and I look forward to hearing your thoughts and opinions soon.
Kind regards,
Landers
Mac User.
*And probably never will be because if you can’t do it on a Mac it’s not worth doing!
