Just Say No to Microsoft from No Starch Press

Its not often you find a book that makes you laugh, cry and rethink your life all at the same time. It is even more rare to have this kind of epiphany with a book from the computer section. But this irreverent, well researched guide to why and how to hate the Redmond Giant hits the spot on so many levels. The book delivers background on the history of Microsoft, Apple and Linux (including the Open Source movement) that may not be free of bias, but is sure fun to read. The bulk of the book, however, is dedicated to pointing out the many, many flaws (the book is 260+ pages) in Microsoft software. There are things you would have never thought about that Bove covers here, like forgotten details lurking in your Word document. From safety concerns to possibly the worlds longest living bug - the book walks you through the evil truth embedded in every aspect of Windows, Office and Media Player.
