Little Canadian Mike Rowe got contacted by Microsoft to hand over the domain name of his site "mikerowesoft.com" They even offered him the large amount of $10.

Haha, I saw that on TechTV.

Absolutely ridiculous.

I saw it on tv too. They offered him $10, he said he wanted $10,000.

Now microsoft has all there lawyers going after him because they think he was just trying to swindle money out of them.

That is ridiculous. Leave the kid alone. It's bad enough he's Canadian.

 

[Super-Supra]

That's pretty stupid, $10,000 to Microsoft is like a penny for us.

My chemistry teacher told me that on average, Bill Gates makes $53,000 each second. If he dropped a $100 bill on the ground he'd be wasting his time picking it up.

Bill Gates can spend something like $1000 a second for 85 years and still have more money than Oprah, Jerry Seinfeld, Serena and Venus Williams, and Tiger Woods combined.

I think that's pretty neat. Don't hold me to those statements, though.

They have stepped off Mike Rowes back... Good call M$...

If they'd offered him a grand, he'd have thought he'd won the lottery, and the whole thing would have blown over without anyone knowing about it.

He should have asked for $10 Million. At least then it would have been worth while to report on.
