I think Jim would probably rather cut off both his arms than deal with MS again.

hanywella,

You should read up about the Microsoft deal. It ended up costing Jim more money and hassles than it paid because of all the extra customer support. Many of the people who bought Microsoft Plus for $40 (none of which went to Jim) called SereneScreen and angrily demanded a free upgrade to the Aquarium.

You wrote something, licensed it to Microsoft, and got screwed with your pants on too?
