When an administrator leave we explicitly leave their root access still on, that way, admins are not likely to build security flaws in the system. And no, our admins are not just some guy we picked up from the streets because he knew how to release the caps lock key.
I can sort of relate to it. I personally love FLOSS by heart but I really don't like the culture that I often find. Every time you bring up.NET or anything that comes from Microsoft then the argument is not that Microsoft is bad for this or that technical reason. It's Microsoft is bad because Bill Gates is a seal clubbing bastard and if you're being paid by Microsoft, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell.
FLOSS should win because the software is better, not because it's fun to bash Microsoft.
I see where you're going but I don't see why their.NET efforts has to be affected by the OOXML screwup..NET has been around for much longer time and the standardization process is much more mature. That's why you can build a program on Linux using Mono, copy it to a Windows machine and run it.
But we all know Microsoft doesn't like cross-platform.
Yep, that's why the.NET framework is designed to be platform agnostic and the whole thing is submitted to ECMA and ISO for standardization. Just because they haven't implemented it on other platforms doesn't mean that they are against cross-platform.
Microsoft is undoubtedly a big player in the software industry. If they add it to Visual Studio and makes Qt a first-class.Net citizen I can't see anything bad coming out of this for Qt and Qt developers.
I won't be sad the day the movie industry goes out of business. I've found other ways to find entertainment which does not involve them. Everything does not have to last forever.
And if you really want to run LibreOffice there's nothing stopping you from download and install it yourself in/opt. It's a very simple process explained in the accompanying readme file. It's something like "cd into the directory and run dpkg -i *.deb".
I've never called Excel macros professional software, although I don't see anything stopping anyone from making professional software using Excel macros, do you?
And for the question, I don't know. How is that important?

The information is out there publicly anyway.
Last time I tested my brick of silver could not connect to the 802.11 network that we have here, until they do I find the tablet much more useful.
Who said that we're a company? You're making many assumptions here.
Who said that we hire people?
It does nothing. We don't have insurance.

Install the companion software. That includes the GNU userland located in /usr/gnu.

There's a patent on drag-and-drop? Jeez.
No no no. It should be qt.ms. It's currently available for registration.
Because they want to offer a high-level set of APIs which makes it relatively easy to rapidly develop applications.

Ever heard of Mono?

Oh yeah, good 'ol Me.dies()
I don't see anything wrong with that. A lot of professional software engineers use it.
Actually, I would go to their parents, tell them about it and ask them nicely to not let them do that again. Then I would buy new dishes.
Would people really go to court over this? Seriously?
Not really, this is more like what Canonical is doing in Ubuntu right now.
Mac OS X have had open source repositories for years, both Fink (apt based) and MacPorts.
It would be interesting to hear from anyone with more experience on the subject.
Sun did some experimentation with self cooling datacenters a few years ago.

Modern versions of Basic have those. You know, Basic has also evolved just like many other programming languages.
