A Look at Windows Server Outselling Linux

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the deeper-and-deeper-way-down dept.

THG writes "CoolTechZone.com has an interesting look at Linux's position in the market now that Microsoft has sold more Windows Server software than Linux. From the article: "The most important reason that Windows based servers are doing so well could be that programmers find it extremely easy to work on .Net and other related technologies (seamless integration). Plus, you have hassle free and rapid support from Microsoft, which is a comforting feature for corporate customers. When Windows Live comes in, we will see further integration between the server and online technical support areas, thereby making the troubleshooting process easier for in-house administrators and reducing overhead costs for the company."

    MS has learned much from the radical liberal movement in the US: if you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it.

    Wow! The radical liberal movement! (I didn't even know there was one anymore in our fine country.)

    You sure you aren't talking about the guys who convinced everybody that there were WMDs in Irak and that Saddam H. was behind 9/11?

    Methinks you boo-booed. You just described the M.O. of the radical right, not "radical liberal movements". Progressive efforts concentrate on spreading facts that that big business wants to keep from the public, via the use of lies and public relations.

    Nah, probably referring to the Democratic Underground. Ever read that site? Yikes!
