I got the following mind boggling Microsoft job ad from my brother in
Washington:
"Product Manager
Primary responsibilities include developing and executing
Microsoft's Linux strategy, providing competitive technical
analysis of the Linux operating system, coordinating and
driving cross-company Linux efforts and providing the necessary
tools and resources to educate the field sales force on Linux.
This is a key position within Microsoft with very high visibility,
both within and outside the company. The ideal candidate will have
solid technical skills in both Unix and/or Linux and Windows NT,
extensive knowledge of the Unix marketplace, a minimum of two years
in a product marketing role, excellent pr and public speaking skills
and a proven ability to manage both people and processes to drive
projects to completion. A BA/BS degree with an MBA or equivalent
experience preferred."
We might have to monitor which eug-lug member takes a suspicious
drive up to Redmond in the next week or so....:-)
