(Jim Alchin of MS):
''Open source is an intellectual-property destroyer,'' Allchin said. ''I
can't imagine something that could be worse than this for the software
business and the intellectual-property business.''
(Now you have an idea what the article is about...)
The last line is prob. an example of truth from MS:
''We can build a better product than Linux,'' he said.
This infers that they do not *have* a product better than Linux. Words to
think about, and still question yourself, "why would MS tell the truth?"
Hmmm.
Anyway, enjoy, and back to Linux.
