The Dipstick has taken it upon himself to explain why M$ is such a great company, and how it's wiping Apple's butt in the server market. No, it's not worth the effort to explain that Apple doesn't really even try and compete in broadscale markets. Latest choice quote,as he waxes polemic over the recent Sun / M$ deal, 'See, it shows that even two bitter enemies can make up and get along.'
Uh yeah. The base thing that makes the Dipstick the Dipstick is that he's likable, but he garners no respect for being so utterly and nakedly self serving. I can't bring myself to hate him any more than I can hate the cat for urping on the floor, but the annoyance factor- the clueless verbal bombs he injects into conversations, having other people in the building come up to me and ask, 'How do you work with him??', the way he curses customers under his breath. Grrr.
I don't hate him. But he should be heathen glad that I don't have the 'stare hard and make their head go all explody' power, either.
