Microsoft pays dear for insults through ignorance

Dr. Stevil sent me this article from the Guardian UK.
“Insensitive computer programmers with little knowledge of geography have cost the giant Microsoft company hundreds of millions of dollars in lost business and led hapless company employees to be arrested by offended governments.”

Who knew that Win95 was banned in India? That's awesome! I mean seriously... geography is boring. Who cares?

I thought that Win95 was banned because the code was so bloated that it mocked Ragneesh, the elephant God.
