Microsoft to Get into Book Scanning

http://www.betanews.com/article/Micr...oks/1131130510

Microsoft just can't come up with any original ideas can they? Google has recently been making this huge push to digitalize books, and now Microsoft is doing the same thing.

When was the last time Microsoft innovated something? It's been a while.

yeah, microsoft never innovates. but as much as I'd love to, it's hard to criticize them. they must be doing something right seeing as how Bill Gates has been the richest person in the world for over a decade now.
