Isn't that what I said??
*Company A is selling software that does a certain task.
*MS announces that the next version of Windows will include free software that does that very same task.
*People stop buying Company A's software. Company A goes bankrupt.
*The next version of Windows does NOT contain the promised software.

Asher darlin', the only time I talk out my ass is when I'm whispering sweet nothings in your ear.

Are you lying, or are you just massively misinformed?

Are you referring to Hangul (as Q^3 tried to clarify above, which you dodged)? If so, everything in this quote of yours is demonstrably factually incorrect. They never declared bankruptcy, it just became close in 2002 due to widespread piracy -- then a patriotic campaign to support their own software brought it back from the brink. This was 3 years after MS' attempted purchase of the company. MS also never promised the new versions of Windows would do that.

Where the **** did you get this ****? Are you seriously just making this up? Cite it.
