Bastards

Microsoft couldn't logroll the Massachusetts decision on Open Document Format their way so they've decided to cheat: » Is Massachusetts' OpenDocument decision on the rocks? | Between the Lines | ZDNet.com

Hardly surprising for a company with business ethics that would make a Jamaican posse leader blush. They couldn't bluster Massachusetts into accepting their flawed version of XML, so they went and bought a few legislators; standard Microsoft practice.

Why innovate when you can steal? Why compete when you can bribe a few state officials to swing your way?

Bastards.
