I'm going to to award a Golden Cookie to whoever comes up with the most extreme / colorful analogy for M$'s behavior that a.) doesn't violate Godwin's Law, and b.) actually makes sense as an analogy. Comparing M$ to Jeffrey Dahmer, for example, is fine, but no cookie unless there's a *reason* they're like Jeffrey Dahmer.
