"This manual of style is actually a glossary. But, MS is still the largest independent software company in the world and everyone uses their software. So, why not standardize on their terminology?"
"Even though I really hate Microsoft... they are still pretty much the standard for style in the computer industry as long as you are referencing Windows products when writing."
"This is the Larry Craig of style manuals. Every so often it meets up with MLA for a hot, airport-restroom love session, but at the end of the day, it returns to the faithful embrace of Chicago Manual of Style.
On the surface, it's an easy-to-read, straight-forward guide on how to live your life in the written word. But, dig below the surface a bit, and you'll find a world of complexity and self-contradiction that can't be explained away by just one set of rules.
In MLAs arms, MSTP can, for fleeting moments, relax in the knowledge that someone out there thinks the same way about suspended compound adjectives."
