Microsoft Microsoft has announced an integrated suite of tools for designers, as well as a new preview of the company's 'Flash killer' technology, putting Microsoft squarely into competition with Adobe. Microsoft on Dec. 4 announced its Expression Studio suite of tools for designers, consisting of four tools - three of which had been introduced heretofore and a new tool stemming from an acquisition the company made last summer. In addition, Microsoft announced a new CTP of its WPF/E technology, and there's also an app to show it off, while with some workarounds WPF can be used in Vista's Sidebar.

I don't have two accounts, but it does seem as if someone is modding my posts up as soon as they are posted. Maybe there's a glitch in the system or something.

I really don't care, though, what my score is, as long as it's above 1.00.

As for your posts, well, the fact that they are nearly all off-topic is the reason they get modded down.

They also misrepresent the references they point to, but that in itself is not sufficient reason to mod them down. Being dishonest, in and of itself, is allowed. Being off-topic isn't.

I note that you didn't try to deny that you routinely insult those you disagree with by calling them cultists...

Actually, it seems that today I'm part of the 150 most trusted OSNews users (as calculated by the OSNews algorithm), which is why my comments get a +1 bonus. This list is revised every day, apparently, so I won't necessarily have that bonus in the future.

Note that, personally, I really don't care if my posts get modded down when they are off-topic (as this one is), so please mod away. You won't hear me whining about it.
