First of all, I know for a FACT that the individuals involved apologized PERSONALLY. Microsoft never told them to do what they did, and they weren't even promoting, per se. They were having fun with friends. Albeit, there was indeed poor judgment involved, doing what they did at that hour, and they will be the first to admit that.
How do I know? They're very good friends of mine.
And they both got fired.
So I KNOW that you got a PERSONAL apology, and two people lost their jobs. What more "restitution" do you need?
But I guess I need to attack you personally to get posted in the "Hate Mail." Umm...get a hobby? Get off your high horse? Move to the suburbs? Find more dignified ways to get the attention you obviously so desperately crave? Find an editing job, since you apparently have an excellent knack for pretentiously pointing out the grammatical errors of others? (Feel free to correct mine!)
If you have any decency, you will post this somewhere on your site, and end this absurd "campaign," so that everyone knows that you got what you wanted "more than anything" -- an apology (and the comeuppance of knowing that two great people lost great jobs over this...right?).
And by the way, "Mr. Lower East Side," I doubt you would have set foot in your neighborhood a decade or so ago, so don't act like you live in the suburbs just because you can afford an area that has become more quickly gentrified than any other in the U.S., in recent history.

HP has had plenty of time to fine-tune its finger-friendly TouchSmart software, and now, its newest model, the TouchSmart 610, ushers in a fresh design, highlighted by a hinge that allows the display to slide down and lie nearly flat.
