What a campaign! It almost brought tears to my eyes! Is this just another confession of Mr.Gate$? What if Micro$oft itself is one of the main reasons that there are millions of refugees on the earth? How the refugees, I am sure, to be able to see the world through completely different Windows.
Hehe! "Microsoft will contribute to blah blah..." Pah!

I'm also pretty skeptical about this campaign...

I don't understand where the skepticism comes from. Is it because Microsoft is involved or because it's hard for us to believe people want to help others?
Just check it out and make your own evaluation. If you want to participate...fantastic...if not, that's ok too.
