Microsoft's New Linux-Based Wireless Network
MECC points to an article about Microsoft's new wireless network. From the article "The next time Bill Gates sends an e-mail through Microsoft's shiny new Wireless LAN it will be passed through a behind-the-scenes Linux-based network appliance." Microsoft has partnered with Aruba Networks for a large corporate wireless LAN deployment, involving 277 buildings and 5000 access points, 'all Linux based.'"
What are you talking about? Gates has left Microsoft to go head up Novell. Where he's spearheading their new Vista wireless network system to challenge the Microsoft monopoly.

They can't even figure out how to centrally manage thier current cisco wireless setup ... I don't think they have it in them to actually get it working right.
Simply a temporary measure until access points advance in power enough for Windows WAP.
The current hurdle is getting the HD space to store the UPnP Aero interface.
first reply to your post.
There, is that better?
So is it ... "The power of Linux brought to you by Microsoft." or
"The power of Microsoft brought to you by Linux." ???

You forgot to explain "bundling" to him...
An interesting comparison here.
