Another interesting read. An interesting point about making unix a service, which keeps things in the bag, so to speak.

Haven't read the article yet but did read recently that longhorn developers were "learning" from Linux :?

I request permission to be frustrated about this news.

Now they want to grab Linux source code to create a new OS. This mean only one thing, Linux it's better than windows.

I will purchase the Linux Mandrake package for small fees before MICROSTUFF gain control on it.

Personnally I would like to see Microsoft putted out of business. From hero to zero.

:evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

À chaque jour qui passe, je déteste de plus en plus Microsoft. Pourquoi ??

I like this one in THAT page:

Microsoft Monkey Colony on Mars
Microsoft has announced that a team of monkeys will be shot into space in 2005 to establish the first Martian Colony. At a recent press conference, Bill Gates confirmed, "We are already training the monkeys to do simple tasks like reboot the space ship when it blue screens. The space vehicle will be running our newest product, SpacePod 2004. This product will instruct the monkeys how to colonize Mars and establish trade with the Martians. We intend to monopolize this market before Human travel to Mars is possible."

They put a SCO unix plugin on top of the windows kernel as a w2004 service and charge a fee for the service.

lol at the road sign.

And at the GPL def.

And at the "permission to be frustrated".

:D :D :D
