 Microsoft Software Sucks spammed:

 MSS| Are you tired of the Microsoft Monopoly?

Not if it keeps Apple Computers alive.

 MSS| Sick of Microsoft giving away its software for free, choking off
    | its competitors?

Beats the hell out of paying for the stuff.

 MSS| Tired of Microsoft "dumping its software" on the market?

No, I'm tired of AOL dumping its software on innocent people.  :)

 MSS| Fed up with Microsoft not publishing its APIs so only it knows
    | about and uses them?
 MSS| Altering industry standards (such as Java) to suit its own needs
    | to direct the market?

This is the Apple // group, chum.  Microsoft gave up on us a decade ago.

 MSS| THEN WRITE TO THE US DEPARTMENT OF JUSTIC AND VOICE YOUR COMPLAINT
    | on these and any other unfair business practices you know of!

They sound line a typical American business (with megabucks) to me...
note, I didn't say they were ethical in all cases, but they exploit the
same niches every American can [plus a few they buy] so break it down:
Netscape has been given out free, and we don't complain about their
monopoly.  Make a killer app and the world beats a path to your door.
I don't think Windows is the do-all be-all end-all, but I CAN'T USE IT
so the whole argument is moot to me.  See, Microsloth can't win 'em all.
