They just got a different tool to use than we do: They kill innocent lives to achieve objectives. That's what they do. And they're good. They get on the TV screens and they get people to ask questions about, well, you know, this, that or the other. I mean, they're able to kind of say to people: Don't come and bother us, because we will kill you. Bush - Joint News Conference with Blair - 28 July '06

Microsoft - "Firefox is rubbish mate"

Steve Vamos, Microsoft Australia's managing director say's he does not believe IE's market share is under attack following the recent high-profile debut of the Mozilla Foundation's Firefox browser. According to Vamos "A browser is a browser is a browser mate - I don't agree that just because a (competing) product has a feature that we don't have, that feature is important, if it was, we would have it mate"

Vamos, who admitted he has never used Firefox, said "there is a lot of hype surrounding the open-source movement" and that "if Microsoft's customers wanted new features, they would have fucking told the company about it, mate"
