============================================================= Reuters: Microsoft Won't Cut Windows Price To Beat Linux
http://linuxtoday.com/news_story.php3?ltsn=2002-10-10-014-26-NW-BZ-MS ----------------------------------------------------------------------- cet article a provoqu� une s�rie de commentaire assez int�ressants, dont celui-ci : Subject: Microsoft Innovation imho amounts to getting Windows, finally after almost 20 years, up to a half decent state. Mostly though it is new innovative ways to lock in, harrass , and beggar the customers. How long before governments and businesses can be sued for keeping taxes higher, and profits lower, respectively, than they need to be because they don't run the more affordable,more customizable, more secure Linux ? ======================================================== Mon commentaire � moi : Comment en p�riode de crise budg�taire est-il encore possible qu'un d�cideur puisse supporter l'option MS sans sourciller ni avoir certaines inqui�tudes, si plus tard ce choix, et toutes ses cons�quences diverses (gaspillage des deniers publics, ins�curisation, formats propri�taires, incompatible avec l'usage public...) devait �tre justifi� publiquement. Il vaut mieux consacrer son �nergie � autre chose qu'� des combats d'arri�re garde. -- Bonne journ�e -- Have a nice day Alain ------------------------------------------------------------ Dr Alain Empain <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Bioinformatics, Molecular Genetic, Fac.
