Windows 10: Microsoft is so cliché company.

Hello,If you want to contact someone by email or phone as a regular client, it's almost impossible.Of course, Microsoft delivers email services, but they don't provide email or phone support themselves.However, if you contact the sales office, they do have phone and email contacts and are available for assistance :How to call this bad habbit ? Do you think its faire ? If I identify myself as a prospect, will I be more respected ?

Company merging on the horizon

The Inq. talks about some major company merging that could take place this summer. What is likely to happen is summarized in the following list:

• eBay is in talks with Microsoft and Yahoo regarding cooperation and perhaps even a combination
• Oracle, SAP and perhaps Novell might be "up to something"
• Telecoms will surely continue to be a big source of deal-making and not just through attempts to build scale and geographic coverage. Deals such as Sky-Easynet and eBay-Skype suggest that combinations of services could be the way forward.
• Sun might be bought by Fujitsu Siemens, HP or Dell

Microsoft on The World’s Most Ethical Companies list 5 years in a row

I think that Microsoft is an ethical company, personally I have nothing to complain. However, the list itself and institution behind it is clearly just a business with no factual value; if a company like Adobe is on the list, the list can't be taken seriously. Adobe is not ethical, a company who tries everything they can to feed third party software to anyone downloading and installing their products like for instance the McAfee and Chrome / Chrome Toolbar which are offered and by default selected when downloading Flash Player or Adobe Reader and which many consumers do not notice therefore installing them, too.
