Microsoft's Worst Enemy: Themselves

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the food-for-the-machine dept.

KobyBoy writes "Saw this story posted on OSnews this morning. "Microsoft's biggest threat isn't Linux, OpenOffice, or any piece of software at all--its themselves. Over the last eighteen months two distinctly different Microsoft cultures have emerged, often in opposition to each other." You can get the full article at Sudhian Media."

    I know this is offtopic, but here goes nothing... My father worked on the Space Shuttle program, and one of his tasks was converting a program from PL/1 to F77. That program calculated how much fuel was needed based upon the planned flight path. He couldn't tell me much else he worked on, 'cause he'd have to kill me. :)
