Why? Who's asking for this stuff, is there somebody out there who is really pleased with this news or is Microsoft really just that out of touch.
I don't want to have to start wearing rainbow knee-length socks, but Microsoft are pushing me towards it.
I've read this exact questions tens of times now. This is capitalism. Now why would a for profit company ever do anything? I leave you to your deductions.
Won't they make more money if they don't piss everyone off.
