Abstract

The article discusses issues in the computer industry as of July 2006. Martin Taylor of Microsoft is now looking for a new job. He left the company the same day his project Windows Live Messenger was released. His resignation was associated with copies of pirated software found in Taylor's hard drive. Microsoft has changed its Windows Genuine Advantage program so that it phones homes only occasionally instead of all the time. The issue of customer loyalty is also discussed in relation to the option of hardware makers no to ship compact discs.
