Also, it's Microsoft Windows, not Micro$oft Winblows.

totally agree, I hate when people can't or don't want to write some simple words properly

My dad called it "Ubantu". I didn't comment nor correct him.

I keep seeing it called "Unbuntu" by Dell employees as well.

It feels like a subliminal message by Dell/MS/Novell now... ;)

I like to say Micro$oft or M$ to express my dislike for Bill Gates money grabbing ways for example in the old days when he brought out an operating system you got the full operating now you pay for the features you can afford and when you want more features if you can afford them you have to pay again why cant he just put all features on the one version and charge a reasonable price for it Grrrrrr $$$$$$$$$$

I concur. There are plenty more colourful, indecent and offensive names for Microsoft out there. Add to that various references to the name referring to Bill's poor endowment, as well as other various insults ranging from tongue-in-cheek innuendo to outright verbal destruction, and there's plenty of greater sins than referring to it as Micro$oft. And deserving of it they are too; Microsoft is a stain on this planet, a deceitful and destructive force that deserves far worse than any swapping of 's' for '$'.

I think that should be a capital T at the beginning of a sentence, just thought I would mention it before the grammar police pull you up ;)
