Microsoft violated the Constitution?
« on: November 06, 2009, 08:17:27 PM »
So, how has Microsoft violated the Constitution?

That was not my question. I found it here somewhere in a thread about Linux.
Let's tank about it here. Or just ignore it. I wanted to know it anybody thins that is even near true.  It is one thing to say they violated fair trade practices, -but violate the Constitution?     :o

No offense kid, but you're 14. I'm going to guess there are a few things you haven't heard of ;D

And yes, that's jealousy of your age :(

Southern Fried Chicken is not a chain, it's a general term / description for preparing chicken a certain way (http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1T4GGLL_enUS304US305&q=southern+fried+chicken)

Southern Fried Chicken has been around for maybe a couple of hundred years and to a large degree it is what KFC copied for their product.  SFC is usually home cooked but a lot of restaurants offer it also.

Partially my fault too, but this thread got more off topic than any other I can remember without a bunch of flaming replies being involved. 

I've heard a lot of nasty things said about MS but never heard of anyone suggesting that MS violated the Constitution.

I remember that the UK was doing some legal action because microsoft was forcing users to use IE at the beginning. After this was resolved, WIN7UK got canceled.
