Food is supposed to be 'rich', not software. I can't frickin eat bytes on a disk.
Lets take the following quote:
Microsoft offers four programming languages for building software with Visual Studio. In Visual Studio 2005, Microsoft will expand upon the unique strengths of Visual Basic, Visual C++, Visual C#, and Visual J# to deliver a rich language offering for developing a range of software.
How is developing in a non-standard language rich? How about actually supporting the standards that everyone else in the world uses? rolls eyes
Or this quote:
The Java 2 Platform provides a rich set of APIs for developing global applications.
How about developing a version of Java that doesn't use up 70% of my RAM? Or one that doesn't feel as slow and sluggish as if you were running Windows XP on a 386?
Bah, who the hell am I kidding. Why should any of these companies actually develop something useful and efficent when they can just shovel millions of lines of code into a blender and purée!
