This week in Windows: Microsoft on the run
,----[ Quote ]
| In a way, Microsoft's Windows is kind of like the foul weather that
| we've been having here on the East coast for the last couple of
| weeks. None of us enjoy it, we just accept it as a fact of life.
| Given Microsoft's control of the market and complete dominance of
| the enterprise, it's no surprise that Windows often seems more
| like force of nature and less like a product.

| I'm not saying that this time next year, we'll all be using Ubuntu
| and OS X at work. Microsoft's stranglehold on the enterprise is
| likely to last for some time to come. But it's nice to see
| open-source making strides and being adopted by major players
| like Dell and Intel. We're certainly seeing more legitimate
| business interest in Linux now than we've seen in years past.
