Microsoft is trying to break into the market for the software which will run the handsets.

In short this will leave Nokia, Motorola, and all as nothing more then commodity handset makers while MSFT itself gets huge royalties for every handset sold. It's a nice plan if it works.

compared to other articles that give light to the truth about finland, that website and the authors writing style sucked. I couldn't even finish reading it and i'm interested in the topic

Re: The evil Finns strike back! Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

The site about Finland wasn't very funny, but it wasn't a ****, and that's the only word I can describe this "Super"
thing with. There's not a sign of humour, knowledge or intelligence in it. It's just an insult, in a very bad style.
Are You satisfied with such an answer?

Suffering from ads?

The other comments were much better, but still one guy doesn't know that there are more catholics in Netherlands than protestants today and in some years they reached 40% of the population, and the other guy mixes - just like Bush Junior - Slovakia and Slovenia...

Yep, that "super Poland" thing was quite perseestä. Infantile bickering. They should just have given it a rest.

@ Heresson & Aivo½so

I think you completely missed the point. The super Poland site isn't making fun of Poland, it's making fun of Rutkowski's site and trying to point out that it too is "infantile bickering". Unfortunately some people haven't understood that and are taking the original site somewhat seriously. Jacek trolled successfully and got what he wanted: lots of unintelligent responses, which only supported his original trolling. But I agree that the "comic" response could have been made a lot better.

If someone really wants to, every known country in the world can be dissed just like that. Mixing in tiny bits of thruth doesn't make it any better, hell, that's just what skilled trolls do.

No, no, no. It tried to deal with the guy's claims by showing that Poland is even worse.

and the fight continues.. After some nasty comments from back and forth.. some RUssian guy came in and dissed both of us, so Polish and Finns joined forces and started bashing Russia. Then Swedes came in and.. well it's getting messy in there! In the questbook that is. I'm laughing so hard.. people can be so stupid

flame war at its best. It should have a disclaimer to stupid people, everyone is offending everybody with nasty comments. It's interesting to see how this develops.

There's something wrong about these guys.
They read a moderately offending story about Finland and are enraged. They write a very offending story about Poland and don't seem to see anything wrong about that; moreover,
They add and add new insults, mostly coming out of their ignorance and bad taste of humour.
They offend not only Poland by this, but themselves as well.
