Thank the sweet lord for that then.
And I'd have said the same thing if it was Apple.

So wait...the Family Guy audience were the ideal target for M$ and then they decided not to target them?!?

As above, they should FG. Although I wonder whether the writers deliberately put all those negative things alongside M$ to give it a bad image?

Seth McFarlane does take a joke too far occasionally, just look at all the Jewish jokes as well as some of the pretty risky ones against ethnic minorities, disabled people etc.

I can understand MS (or any company) pulling out
