We do believe that you are here Mr. Ballmer. But we are curious to know why you were posting with a psuedoname (Srikanth Raghavan) for all these days

This is not good.
First you spied IBM and created Windows NT which was copied from their OS/2.
Then you spied to Novel and created Active Directory which was copied from their LDAP.
Then you spied Sun/Java and created c# which is copied from their Java technologies.

What else you want to copy?
