Default IRS will pay Microsoft in millions

IRS failed to meet the deadline set by Microsoft for windows xp support and didn't upgrade their systems. And now they will be paying nearly $30 million for extended support of windows xp.



Isn't it sweet to see IRS standing on the receiving end.

You do know the money that the IRS is paying is basically our money, right?

Yeah, this kind of pisses me off, especially since today I have to cut them a check for a few thousand.

I hope a meteorite falls from the sky and hits you in the testicles.
