I read it, but I still didn't get it. Could you sum it up a bit?
That's stupid. I think I will patent the button A, so everytime some lets the user type A, they musy pay me.
Seriously, this is one of the dumbest things MS has ever done.
I had to read it through twice,Quote:

Uh, considering Micro-Soft didn't even invent their first OS, the GUI, the Mouse or the majority of things that propelled them this far.
Objective point of views rule dont they?...Quote:

Well, seen Bill Gates is not the most rich person anymore he wants his title back..
Bill Gates already rules the world, what else does he want?
Maybe if we all just scratched one letter from all of the worded keys on our keyboard, Bill Gates wouldn't be able to control everyones' lives, and we would all have funny words on our keyboards :-D.
@above
Niiice bump =]
omfg wtf... dont bump ppl, but on topic, looks like MS is just very bored or is out of ideas on how to make money. Ill rip off those buttons at work, use it way too much:PQuote:

I think Microsoft has finally lost their minds.
Nice job naming them though.
Big Deal, Microsoft is Rich Enough since they use to have Bill Gates. They've invented enough but those 2 buttons are kinda pointless since we dont really use it
I used those 2 buttons to go down that page :3
Lol... they are being childish IMO
They need to face reality that if they dont actually work on Vista and future OSs Mac is gonna own them...
IMO Mac is in the process of owning them.(As in who is the best...)
Microsoft's new thought and moans for more money, but why make a big fuss over keys that no one uses nor care's about.
Next thing you know they'll be after the "Enter" key.
Oh, that's a big one.
