Yes, it was serious. LOL.

I was provoked, Officer. Someone found Microsoft's self-description to be
amusing, and I got to wondering whether in fact the company's products -- ALL
of them, and we are talking lots of products, folks, some of which you've
never even *heard* of -- suffered globally from the same problems that
programs we are familiar with suffer from.

In other words, is the reputation truly deserved? That's my question.
Admittedly, I am asking the wrong people, but I thought it was worth a shot
anyway. It appears that my question has allowed some to vent feelings of
intense hostility, so perhaps it isn't worthless entirely, even if I've asked
the wrong audience.
