Beyond Vista
,----[ Quote ]
| But Vista isn't a part of the software-as-a-service trend, and all
| the pomp and circumstance around its release mask a growing
| concern inside the company, one that comes through in executives'
| demeanor, internal communications and candid conversations about what
| the IT world will look like five years from now: Software as a service
| is a threat unlike any the company has faced before, and Microsoft must
| make dramatic changes if it wants to remain the most important
| technology company in the world.

SOA was one of Vista's main promised pillars, which were conceded (made
nothing but vapourware) around 2002/3/4. Linux has a huge opportunity here.
