No, most of it goes to salaries for the people developing
Oh<nobr> <wbr></nobr>... I guess that's why MS has $40B in the bank and Bill's the richest asshole in the world.<nobr> <wbr></nobr>... last I heard he wasn't giving it back to his software engineers (SEs)<nobr> <wbr></nobr>... BTW do you know any rich SEs at MS<nobr> <wbr></nobr>... I only hear stuff from the rich MS pointy heads.
Your point is as crazy as saying the profits from your local electric company go into the EEs pockets, therefore we need higher electric bills and who cares if there isn't any competition for your electric service. This is dead wrong<nobr> <wbr></nobr>... electric utilities are not run by EEs and they aren't even close to the highest paid employees. Same for software companies. But at least the electric companies are highly regulated to protect customers.
Every time I buy milk at the grocery store I put bucks in Bill's wallet<nobr> <wbr></nobr>... who's software does the the grocery store chain run<nobr> <wbr></nobr>... how about the distributor<nobr> <wbr></nobr>... the trucker<nobr> <wbr></nobr>... or the farmer. Their software costs are bundled into the $ I pay for my milk.
Wake-up already!!!!
Software should not be a monopolized product<nobr> <wbr></nobr>... it should be a competitive service. I'm sorry but SE work like everyone else in the world and get payed an hourly wage<nobr> <wbr></nobr>... they're not the one's who get rich by locking captured customers in jail and sucking money from their guts.
