I think the valid solution could be like this:
As before, liquidate assets, pay debts/employees, maybe even some contract
customers, etc. NOW wipe all M$ apps and OS from every storage device in
existance. Then comes the last task for all their programmers, maybe for
ALL the sorry sods who wasted their time getting M$-$ertified: write
clean translators for their many proprietary data formats, from financial,
word-processing, database, multimedia, etc.
Burn all M$ propaganda... and let the anthill solution be locally
implemented by LUG's ;-)
