i used MSN abit when it first came out and i was unimpressed, google seemed to return better results. But things might have changed.
People complain alot about Microsoft, but I agree with what ohc said. Microsoft have made products far better than their cempetitors in the past and even if they did a few dodgy things back in the day, the empire that they have built makes life alot easier for everyone. It is them who have achieved the computer phenomena around the world, so I must congratulate them as a stunningly successful company.
