I heard this from some other source too. I think this is true that microsoft asked indians to use sober words and not use bad words but I dont know whether the letter mentioned here is authentic.

Sounds a little racist to indians now lol. Its quite funny. I don't think the indians will really even do those things in the first place. Microsoft's been outta their mind .When I read it and then read the translations, it got even funnier.

Hey now ... this can't be right. I mean, m^e ... are you seriously saying this is a true letter? I mean, it looks kinda weird that they get offended with hindi abuses. I mean, we use hindi, telugu AND english abuses all the time here in chennai. Hehe, it's a good thing the locals don't understand anything other than tamil
