    As much as Micro$oft sucks they at least have a revenue stream independent of data mining. Still won’t use Edge, mostly because it isn’t great but partially because the verb form of it is edging.

      While true, Microsoft didn’t do it because of revenue. They did it to maintain monopoly and force people into depending on windows for corporate use. Thing they did rather well and it took us good part of the decade to break the spell.

        Meh. You know I use that as a “casual” conversation question when I am dealing with a new client. Hey what kinda browser and email client does your work make you use? If I hear Edge and/or Lotus Notes I know what I need to know about that company.
