Paranoid conspiracy theorist says:That's just a typo...What the article means to say is that Microsoft is launching a site where YOU share YOUR source code with them. Then Microsoft will use it's army of TEMPS to stitch together some kind of program from all the snippets of submitted code, and sell it's new program at stores for $200 for the Home Edition, and $500 for the Enterprise Edition. And then secretly patent the source code for the new program, and SUE anyone who uses the code they submitted.
Another group of Microsoft haters. Lolz. I feel like laughing. Come on guys. Do something productive rather then just hating them. I know they are to be hated... but why repeat it on every digg thread. OK that Microsoft is evil. So lets move on guys. :) Leave them alone. Lets not waste time laughing and hating the. :)
I recently have began learning to program (somewhat) with Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition which is FREE, YES FREE, and you know what else you MS flamers the whole Visual Studio is literally free now <a class="user" href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/">http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/</a> , so we all can stop complaining about ANY software and just go and make our own programs.
