  14. Re:AND IBM is a prime mover behind Linux on Microsoft Sees IBM as Biggest Threat · · Score: 1

    Then there's google.... Also a Linux user/proponent. And apple insists on using Open Source (BSD) too.... I dont agree with either of the above. This is one of the common misconceptions about google. Can any one point me to the google products that run on Linux ????? Yes google may run the linux inside their comapany but that does not say anything about google being a linux proponent to me . As far as the story with the spple goes they just were wise and tapped into the BSD. please tell me what is the road map on opening up the UI part that makes mac a mac ? Apple is just following the trend. In fact sun is more open source than the above 2 players and open source proponent. All the players want to make money and make money in the easiest way. Dont trust the corporations that are answerable to the share holders take a political stance. They have no permanent enemies and no permanent friends. They are entities that are out there to make money open source or not. Linux Proponents IBM Yes for now. Remember it can change in the future... Google Not now. May be in the future ... Apple No comments M$ I dont see that even in the distant future ...
