$200 million dollars of payoff money up for grabs.

Posted by Xwindowsjunkie

Mary Foley is following Rupert Again.

Earlier somebody here wondered in print what it would be like to be MS CEO. Now maybe we ought to wonder what we could do with $200 million of MS' advertising money.

I suggested in the comments to Mary Foley's column that maybe I ought to let Microsoft "buy my vote". I wasn't greedy. I wanted just a small piece of the pie, like parity with the IRS. It was a weak moment but as I've noted the current US administration has already done that with their "economic incentive" tax check kickback scheme.

Assuming you have the stomach for it, everybody in the EU could get in on it too with Microsoft if they wanted.

Just an idea.
