Another nerdly quotes page: http://kuoi.asui.uidaho.edu/~kamikaze/quotes.html

"I have absolutly no problem with people using Java as a better language for Win32 programming (I would prefer if they stuck to x-platform stuff but oh well). The problem I do have is with MS not also providing the Core Java APIs." -D'Arcy Smith (darcy@itools.symantec.com)

"I do understand your perspective. However what you're suggesting effectively translates to Microsoft developing and maintaining, on Windows, a runtime subsystem that competes with Windows and other Microsoft technologies and which is specified by an alliance of our largest competitors." -Carlos Blanco (carlosbl@microsoft.com) in USENET article <5vpq6j$pcf@news.microsoft.com>

And

"If I cannot use the users as playthings, I don't really see too much purpose in having them on my systems." -Chris Magagna (chris@uidaho.edu)

Comment policy

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
