The future of Windows should be open source

,----[ Quote ]
| But alas, we are left with an operating system that will never go open source 
| and a business model that has worked in the past, so surely, it should work 
| in the future, right? It's sad to say, but unless Microsoft wakes up and 
| realizes the current trend in the industry, Windows and Office as we know it, 
| may meet an early demise.

,----[ Quote ]
| Open source software therefore is not the same thing as code that is in 
| the "public domain."

Who really owns your open source code?

,----[ Quote ]
| The people I feel sorry for in all of this are the people that contributed to 
| CUPS and gave away their copyright rights under the assumption that they were 
| contributing to an open project.

Dear Mr. Gates: save Vista, open-source it

,----[ Quote ]
| Although Microsoft may claim otherwise, Vista, from both from a technical
| and business point of view, is proving to be a failure. Why not turn it
| over to people who have shown time after time that they can deliver
| the goods?
