Why are you saying "M$" instead of "MS"? Don't you know the dollar signs ("$") 
is not kosher for Passover since U.S. dollars constitute leavened bread? This 
makes all Perl, PHP and Bash/zsh code (And some Ruby and Haskell code) non-
kosher for Passover.

Seriously now - I detest people who use "M$" instead of "MS", not as much 
because I respect Microsoft (which I do to a substantial extent), but because 
I respect the dollar-sign, which among other things is the emblem of 
Objectivism:

kosher operating system from scratch to avoid any foreign worship influences 
on software used by heavens'-fearing Jews.)
