Microsoft Dislikes Nations Trying to Escape Lock-in

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the iron-fist dept.

Johnny Mnemonic writes "Reuters, link to C|Net, is reporting that Microsoft considers a possible collaboration among three Asian nations to produce their own OS "unfair". You just can't make this stuff up. Shouldn't Asian nations also have the Freedom to Innovate? Or is this merely a dodge by Microsoft to demonstrate that they really do face competition? Will they hire Boies to prosecute their case?"

    Asian countries not being able to be bought/bribed....

    Obviously you have never been to Asia. You can buy/bribe anyone and anything. Hell you can buy a human being over there still :)

    They place a different value on a human life then we westerners do :)
