Michael Hanscom has been released from his position at Microsoft's internal print facility due his interests in Macintosh computers.
Earlier this week, he posted at his personal blog site a picture of G5 Macs being unloaded near the MSCopy building. Shortly thereafter, Microsoft terminated Hanscom’s employment contract.
Microsoft’s reaction may seem a tad harsh. The company does have a Mac Business Unit, which produces software for Apple computers. It’s no shocker that Redmond would want some of Apple’s latest and greatest kit. Clearly, however, the company did not like a temp worker eyeing its loading docks and then running home to blog about it to strangers.
