(deep breath)
Why is everyone do agro agro about Microsoft? What do the majority of you
guys use?! I would assume Windows. MS do what they need to do to survive
in still a very competitive market. Anyone can make software with correct
knowledge and tools - its not as if they are countries using their power to
corrupt other nations is it? <cough cough> ring a bell?
Jeez, look at Apple - they release an already 2 years late OS which you
would have to re-purchase all your software for anyway?! erm and thats not
underhand? Apple are in teh position they are in for one reason, they didn't
license the OS rights - nail in the coffin right there. Oh and it doesn't
work well - something Windows does, despire the hear 'say - Windows 95/98 I
will give you, they were pants, but NT, 2K are pretty stable - I have never
had to reboot a server in anger.
I suggest you guys take the time out to realise just how much work was put
into making the MS business and maybe take some time out from your bitchin
to read Randell E. Stross's book - The Microsoft Way; it is a fair expose of
the man and the company - I think it will open a lot of eyes.
Maybe the QT thing was deliberate, maybe it wasn't - but there will be a
resolution.
