Well I guess thats another service I'll have to drop. Shame, I kinda liked yahoo. Just glad they are not getting google

explains why yahoo didnt heavily invest in new data centres for the new online office services like ms and google.
I used to be an ms hater in the days of win 2k server but do feel that 2k3 server is a ggod product and i still use windows on my desktops, my cctv is linux and my linux dev machine is linux, oh and my myth box, and my main home server is cent... lol

damn

Not so much that I dislike the products, as much as I don't like the business model (If we can't make something good our self, then we will just but out the good products). Their idea of competition is to throw money at it and make it go away rather than work to make something good better. I do use some of their products, but they are just to big for there own britches. They are certainly to proud of their name, trust me, I know alot of people who work there

I will keep my yahoo e-mail until I can't access it. (From Linux with Firefox)

But if the choice is MS or Google, I choose MS. Google keeps all your data forever. MS can't keep the data you want to keep for more than 2 reboots.
