Overall $10,000 is a small contribution the multi-billion dollar corporation made and they do it to both parties so when they have an issue with a policy, they will be heard by the politician. That's standard practice.

It's silly because time and time again, Microsoft's CEO has spoken on behalf of immigrants and especially when he's had a chance to meet with government officials. None of that seems to matter though and all of a sudden the brain trust on here is calling for boycotting Microsoft because they threw a bone at Mitch who hates us.

It's extra silly because now the "principled" people on here have turned into a Windows debate which is extra extra silly since Windows has always gone out of its way to run on any bucket of computer parts you threw at it when Apple has mostly just catered to the privileged who can afford their products and only their products.

Life kind of sucks at the moment but like Al Bundy and the mighty cockroach, I survive.
