nopainers, if you think google is being careful to not upset microsoft... you should pay more attention to the tech news B) Google is pretty much blocking M$ everytime they try to expand their online presense. They beat hotmail, beat msn search, they have an IM client, they have their hands in almost everything you can do online. They aren't exactly trying to not make any companies into enemies if they are expanding into that many different parts of the tech market.

Yah google does have thier hands in everything. And Microsoft hates it, and Google altogether. looka at this from a previous post at Xisto forums.SEATTLE - Microsoft Corp. said late Thursday it had reached a settlement with rival Google Inc. and former employee Kai-Fu Lee, ending a legal battle that had exposed behind-the-scenes rancor between the companies.In a statement, Redmond-based Microsoft said the three parties had entered into a "private agreement that resolves all issues to their mutual satisfaction."Google confirmed the settlement and released a statement from Lee saying he was "pleased with the terms of the settlement agreement."Microsoft spokesman Jack Evans would not say when the settlement was reached. He also would not provide details of the settlement, calling it confidential. Google also declined to comment further.Lee had worked at Microsoft since 2000 and helped develop its MSN Internet search technology, including desktop search software rivaling Google's. He left in July to lead Google's expansion into China after Google offered him a $10 million compensation package.Microsoft sued Lee and Google in a Washington state court, contending that Lee's job at Google would violate terms of the noncompete agreement that prohibits him from doing similar work for a rival for one year. Microsoft also accused Lee of using insider information to get his job at Google, based in Mountain View, Calif.I also heard about a microsoft a high level microsoft worker throwing a chair and yelling "I'll kill google!, I've done it before and I'll do it again!" after one of his most valued employees said he was going to work for google. So yah, Microsoft despises google.I use windows, just because I am forced to share computers with complete idiots that don't want me to change anything... but when I get my own computer I will test Ubuntu,linux, exc.
