[Discuss] (OT) Barnes & Noble wants DOJ probe into Microsoft patent tactics



I would like someone to investigate the way Barnes and Noble treats their
customers.  Instead of insulting Amazon's new competing product (
http://www.cnn.com/2011/11/07/tech/gaming-gadgets/nook-kindle-war/index.html?eref=rss_tech&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+rss%2Fcnn_tech+%28RSS%3A+Technology%29)
and crying about unfair licensing practices they should be focusing on
improving their broken customer service and creating a quality product
that's less bug-ridden than the ones they usually release.
