Not that I am pro-ms, but I find the pro-unix/anti-ms to be a load of self-righteous, ignorant t055ers.
How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

I agree but I had the misfortune to have to work with a guy a while back who was so gushing in his praise of everything MS produced it was sad. When Office 2000 came out he was going through its features and practically cheering. He needed a particularly good kicking! Twice. At least!
Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
Back in my permie days I once worked with a guy who had screaming fits about how $hite MicroShaft were.
He went raging to the boss about it. Told him he couldnt work with MS garbage.
Boss pointed out that all the company software tools were MS based or ran on MS machines as he handed him his P45.
I am not qualified to give the above advice!

TBH I do not care what badge it has as long as it works & does every thing I want it to, my only IT brand hang up would be Apple: I would love an I phone but I want it to have windows mobile on it as that is what I use

I don't think I ever came across a proper MS fan-boy, to anything like the level of your typical Linux/open-source zealot.
I was having a cigarette at a night club a couple of months ago and some bloke walked over and asked if I worked in IT (I must look a right geek). He then asked me which technology I worked in and then I could swear he was trying to pick a fight with me for using .NET instead of Java.
