Subject: [DUG]: Palladium - a concern for developers?


Take a look at

http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/features/2002/jul02/0724palladiumwp.asp

Our dear, dear friend Billy-boy may have come up with a winner for him and 
a loser for everyone else (again?). This feature in future Windows version 
can have the effect of shutting out all applications that Billy does not
want.

This means that if Billy wants a particular market then he can refuse a 
particular application ability to run. However, his will. Much cheaper than 
his cost of destroying Netscape.

How can it effect you and I?

Well if Billy wants, he can charge you and I a sum of money to have our 
programs acceptable for running on Windows. All in the name of National 
Security and personal rights and Mother and Apple Pie of course.

What are your thoughts?

Steve
