USM is still one of the last bastions of vendor-neutral,
science-oriented centres of *EDUCATION*, not training. No
Micro$oft-oriented rubbish here (even if M$ stuff is popular,
"products" are not part of the CS curricula). For that I'm still proud
of my institution and I hope it can defend its integrity for years to
come. We're like Rivendell holding out against Sauron's army though,
as Microsoft would really like to dispatch their Nazgul against us.

(Hint : If you see this guy hanging around any campus, you can be sure
he's there to brainwash students:
