View Full Version : MICROSOFT BUYING FREEDEDICATEDSERVERS.COM ?
mrloophole 11-25-2000, 12:01 PM I have just heard a rumor that specky faced Billionaire Bill Gates is going to buy out another company.
This time, FreeDedicatedServers.com the company that do the free servers for sites with more than 5000 hits.
If he could buy the moon, he probably would the rich "you know what".
Marshall 11-25-2000, 01:37 PM Why would Microsoft be interested in a company like Freededicatedservers.com?
It could either be the "20 letters long" name, or the famous virtualis dedicated servers?
What do you think?
JonnyQuags 11-25-2000, 01:58 PM Freededicatedservers.com is hosted with alabanza and registered to a hotmail address. Seems sort of sketchy to begin with I think........
As per usual, until we see proof, we'll just have to regard it as tomorrow's news today.... In the rubbish bin.

May we see the source of this rumor, please?
Félix C.Courtemanche 11-25-2000, 07:24 PM Why would MS do that... they are big enough to start anything without the help of some small fake free server company :)
It's not like this freededicatedserver company is competing with MS... and since MS is known to only buy those it can't beat... (a lot of them actually)
.... Do you smell what I smell? ;)
Félix C.Courtemanche 11-25-2000, 07:29 PM I smell canned fried chicken
etLux 11-25-2000, 07:35 PM No, no, that's not quite it... I think it's something in the rodent family.
Félix C.Courtemanche 11-25-2000, 08:54 PM Well, I've got a flu, so everything I smell smells the same to me :D
etLux 11-25-2000, 08:58 PM Get better, Felix.
KDAWebServices 11-25-2000, 09:38 PM Hmmm, a Monty Python sketch spings to mind now.
Everybody join in now:
Spam Spam Spam, Spam Spam Spam Spam Spam, Spam Spam Spam Spam.
Some people must think people who use these forums are stupid. Microsoft could by the FGC if it wanted to seriously get into web-hosting (I believe it already offers it - anybody?).
Duster 11-25-2000, 09:39 PM The all capitals was the first clue. Thank goodness in cyberspace we can't smell the stench of this post. It reeks.
Felix,
Eliminate all dairy foods from your diet for the duration of your bout with the flu. Your congestion will lighten as your body produces phlegm from milk fat.
Félix C.Courtemanche 11-25-2000, 10:06 PM *taking a note to replace all milk derivated with beer derivated*
ewwhhh.... cheerios with beer...
At least I won't be sick for long... drunk I will ;)
