Tin Soldiers: Alexander the Great -- Microsoft Case Study...

Post by Deride »

This link was posted in the TS-ATG forums, but thought I would also post here:

http://www.microsoft.com/resources/case ... dyID=16499

For you non-technical types, the study is basically talking about Microsoft's new technology to build games for the PC using Microsoft .NET, which is a more stable and more productive environment for building applications.

MicroSoft in relation with that phrase tends to be a contradiction in terms. Perhaps it is no surprise that link is not currently working right now.

Yes, and the fact that the link comes from MS itself would explain a LOT. So much for credibility.

I'm on Firefox and it works like a charm. I get a bit peeved at people bashing technology from MS with some kind of superiority complex. Why don't they ever back up their words with something tangible, such as a truly killer app or game for Linux, Apple, etc.? Outside of the graphics arena, they are few and far between, if not nonexistent.
There's a simple answer to every complex question - and it's wrong.

If you are running this forum on Firefox it is necessary to clear your cookies and cache due to the recent software update. I was having all kinds of trouble earlier till I stumbled across an administrative notice about doing it.

Things are fine now and links like the one above are working properly.

I love to bash MS as much as anyone, but this time it's not their fault.
Love & Peace,

Look under "Matrix Forums Updated" for the notice.
