Anti-trusting Microsoft
by Volker Weber
Imagine a Monty Python skit with John Cleese riding on a bus. Out of the blue, he hits the person standing to his left. Stunned, the person says, "You just hit me."
"No I didn't," Mr. Cleese responds. A few seconds later, Mr. Cleese hits the person standing to his right.
"Hey, you hit me," that person says.
"No I didn't," Mr. Cleese insists. A few seconds later, Mr. Cleese hits again. Again, he's accused. Again, he denies. Soon, Mr. Cleese can't move a muscle without everyone around him cowering. He stands to give someone his seat; the person jumps back. He reaches out to help an old lady, and passengers scream.
Microsoft has a John Cleese problem.
