"Vamos, who admitted he has never used Firefox, said there is a lot of
hype surrounding the open-source movement and that if Microsoft's
customers wanted new features, they would have told the company about
it."

How can he talk about Firefox features if he admitted he has never used it ?

And I can't believe their customers didn't ask for more security or
features like tabbed browsing ...

Thoses Microsoft people are always funny, if you ask Bill Gates about
Internet Explorer holes he well answer this :
Gates: Understand those are cases where you are downloading third-party
software.
