JOKE: MS

>>From the UK edition of 'PC Week' 31 march, 1998:
> 
>The residents of Silicon Valley are more confused than usual after a
>billboard campaign by the National Multiple Sclerosis Society of
>America.
>
>One of the ads uses the slogan "MS: It's not a software company"
>exploiting the fame of a certain company to draw attention to an
>altogether worthier cause.  Requests to comment on the campaign have
>been met by a surly silence by Microsoft which doesn't relish the
>association of ideas, but is painfully aware that it can't afford to
>appear insensitive over such an issue. Seasoned IT professionals will
>have no trouble telling the two MS's apart. One is a debilitating and
>surprisingly widespread affliction that renders the sufferer barely
>able to perform the simplest task.  The other is a disease.
