Microsoft Reveals Windows Code, Secrets To World Peace
Microsoft revealed hundreds of pieces of proprietary code today in another step towards maintaining its long-standing image of being "just an overall nice company."
"What do billions of dollars worth of proprietary information mean if we canât build peace, understanding and a better world. I love you all. Please help yourself to some more ice cream," a jolly Steve Ballmer, Microsoftâs chief executive, told a packed news conference.
In addition to announcing it would release pieces of its code, the company said it would pay off Argentinaâs debt, stop international terrorism, prevent dogs from going to the bathroom on their neighborâs lawn and eradicate dandruff by the year 2004.
"I feel itâs the least we can do as concerned citizens and lovers of the human race. We all need to get some good karma going, man," said Microsoftâs founder Bill Gates, wearing a Nehru shirt, sporting flowers in his hair and sitting in the lotus position.
