Hell no!

If they were going to get into bed with Microsoft like Tory B Liar did
at the start of his one man banned or like the other lot did with
whatever else they did, they wouldn't tell us how and why if we were

But then when we all signed up to kill brown people in Iran and Iraq
we didn't know that Bush Co Newcopian Enterprises was going to get all
the contracts to bring technology to the poor benighted ancient
civilization; nor find unlimited mineral reserves in Afghanistan.

So I suppose there is a lot yet to be reported about the feeding of
the pigs etc.
I wonder who they will turn out to be once firmly established at the
