Steve BallmerSteve Ballmer, the Microsoft CEO known for whirling a chair across the room in reaction to an employee fleeing to Google, has admitted in an interview to forbidding his children from listening to not only an iPod, but using search giant Google.

“My children–in many dimensions they’re as poorly behaved as many other children, but at least on this dimension I’ve got my kids brainwashed: You don’t use Google, and you don’t use an iPod,”

Oh man!  Its gotta be so easy to seek revenge in that family – just download iTunes and make the default home page www.google.com on every computer.

    Typical Microsoft ideology. Technology would advance 10x faster if the world learned to embrace the best technology, not just what micosoft makes.

    Couldnt agree with you more. Microcrap is like one of those bullies that will eventually have Karma bite them in the ass.
