Minecraft's Vista 8 Disdain Caught by the Media

Summary: The mainstream news sites finally pay attention to more complaints about the development of Windows

THE development team behind Minecraft is said to have complained about Vista 8, just like other game makers, but it wasn't until recently that even mainstream media sources such as MSBBC paid attention to it and gave this coverage by saying that "Minecraft creator Markus "Notch" Persson has become the latest developer to attack Microsoft's Windows 8 games strategy."



In a similar vein, it wasn't until we covered it that Glyn Moody noticed the latest Microsoft FUD from Kenya and then rebutted it by saying that "it's sad to see that Microsoft seems to have learned nothing from its earlier, unsuccessful attempts to spread FUD about open source, and seems intent on recapitulating that shabby and rather pathetic history in Africa too."

Hopefully there is no longer fear of criticising Microsoft, a potential advertiser.
