to see that more and more people begin to understand that open-source has far more possibilities than thought of at first.
I guess everybody who's open-source minded spreads the word out, and make things more open-source like around him/her.
Microsoft still controls vast portions of the market
Your reference with Sun and Oracle don`t make much sence to me cauz the OS/scripting-language/database you mention are almost all related somehow to your reference.
Not even to think about the `stick your head in the grond cauz there nothing there' idea you seem to have purchased somewhere.
It's about time these big money makers get confronted with themselves this way. Sur I understand money making is good for you, but let them get a little creative by now by looking for a win-win-win situation (resp. creator - seller - concument). --- fm
OK. I heard that MS is working together with M.I.T. to workout a new learning system for school and stuff.
Sure they do that kinda stuff, but were're talking about system research. Are they really doing this. OK, W2K spooks through my head, but never the less, all those years the only thing they did was increasing sales. Not increasing stability.
Distributed internet solutions: Will it take another 20 years ?;)-
Sure Microsoft did this, and I have to admit that they made something that's not soon equalized.
But why the heck has linux be like that, it's unix, that doesn't do stuff like M$ does. When it runs, it runs. Period.
Many of you guys probably read the discussion between Andrew Tanenbaum and Linus, and Andy cliames linux to be obsolete. Concidering the OS know-how this guy has, he's got a point. Would your point of view be that of his. Well then you would have a point there.
This guy is doing research. M$ doesn't. Well, it builds a buggy computersystem that, so they were told by their marketeers, would be userfriendly(don't laugh) so it the sales would be better.
