Dear Microsoft Office Customers


Please remember that we have your best interests in mind and are looking to maximize your strategic investment in the Microsoft platform, when we bid $44 billion for a couple of websites.

Sure, some of you think we could better spend $40 billion on making our software easier to use, or more secure, or perhaps even by making it cheaper, so you can do business with us easier.  But trust us.  We know what's going to lead to your success: Microsoft having ad revenue streams from searches.

That's what your business needs.  And that's why we're investing your Software Assurance dollars on one of the largest take-over attempts in American corporate history.

Thank you, once again, for your business.

-- Fake Steve Ballmer

You're being unfair: it's at least THREE websites.

Regards,

Real Steve Ballmer

3 - Hey u got it wrong. The websites will be shut down. MS bought the customers who more than willingly make MSN their new home. Nevermind they choose Yahoo over Microsoft (and Google) in the first place...
