Chinese Hackers Angered By Microsoft's Epic Fail

"The so-called "black screen of death" -- which doesn't impede computer function like Microsoft's "blue screen of death" -- has prompted an outcry against what Chinese users of unauthorized software see as Microsoft's heavy-handed tactics..."

anyone else find the Title a bit ironic? I just find it funny that "Hackers" or those that decided to buy pirate stuff have to pay now... ahhh well, there is always Mac OSX... Good luck on breaking that

RememberThe3576407d ago

It's the same thing with DRM. If it wasn't for people pirating games they wouldn't need it.

GiantEnemyLobster6407d ago

Are you sure they aren't talking about Sony's PS3? XD XD

DNAgent6407d ago

The PS3 isn't made by Microsoft (thankfully). I think what you meant to say is "Are you sure they aren't talking about the Xbox 360?". Otherwise I would just have to assume you are stupid.

Allow me to translate to a language you will understand.
AHSO ASHO!

AHSO ASHO! - my ass is bleeding
HASSAN CHOP! - my mouth is swollen
CHING CHANG CHONG. - because steve ballmer's diick is too big

there was a group that said they hacked the Pentagon however that is no big deal because no government secrets are available on the internet. the US government puts NOTHING of value on the internet. the best they could have done is stolen some HTML code. really, an elite Chinese hacker ammounts to nothing but what we call a "code kidddie" in the USA. they talk a lot but all they're good for is pirating some software and maybe stealing a few credit card numbers.

And as a result of their ineptitude all they do is talk, talk, talk, and complain some more when they suddenly realize that MS is onto them and is sabotaging their pirated software. they still haven't broken Mac OS and they're losing the battle with Windows Vista. Cry me a river.

js_mac6407d ago

I didn't know that it was impossible to steal US government secrets over the web.

By-the-way, read the whole article if you're planning on replying.

thewhoopimen6407d ago

whoah... there... that's a very false assertion you're making. No, the US govt's sensitive info has been compromised in the past. Multiple times.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing11d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9211d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit11d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing11d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9211d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
