I really don't have a problem with people disliking Microsoft over its business practices but I really dislike articles where people write things like "Redmond Devil". I pretty much stop reading at that point.
At least they didn't refer to it as "M$".
Ah... you have instantly transported me to mid-'90s Slashdot comments.

I agree "Redmond Devil" is a bit over the edge, but, after what they did and continue doing, it's kind of a precise description.
