I have a similar opinion, with a caveat... IF (this is a big if), a presentation can be done to show *HOW* MS products can be integrated with Linux (lesson or workshop, focusing on the Linux side), then I'd be interested. �However, from what I've seen thus far, the proposed presentation would be about product awareness and the usual MS propaganda.
I'd rather not see any product awareness presentations (and this has been expressed to those who ARE doing presentations to us in the near future). This type of info can be had by browsing the web, reviewing magazines, and/or talking to our peers. �I'm more interested in educational and technical how-to's... BUT, I'm a single voice here - if the consensus is to bring in MS, then so be it. My thoughts.
