Hello, I am Cortana, would you like to play Bejeweled?

Sorry, that isn't fair, but still I think they were less obnoxious back in the Windows 3.1 days.

I think it depends on what you're looking at. If you're looking at those sorts of things, Microsoft is far more obnoxious than they used to be.

If you're looking at business practices, they're a little less obnoxious than they used to be.

Make an attempt to say something you believe, instead of inventing beliefs for others.

I was stating my personal opinion in an (attempted) humorous way. I doubt anyone seriously thought I was summarizing anyone else. I truly apologize for being unfunny here.
