Microsoft twists and turns over ODF

,----[ Quote ]
| Yep, Vole is claiming it is a poor struggling company being stomped on by 
| these nasty open saucers who hold a monopoly and are trying to squeeze it out 
| of the market. Microsoft knows a lot about playing monopoly and realises it 
| is more than just getting a hotel on Park Lane that wins you the game. But 
| you need to have some serious psychological projection problems to think that 
| the ODF could kill off Vole's lucrative Office product.

Open-source vendors: Monopolies waiting to happen?

,----[ Quoten ]
| At some point, I'm convinced that most software will be licensed and 
| distributed in an open-source fashion. Why? Because I see it as a vastly more 
| efficient way to get software into customers' hands. So long as we prove that 
| money can be made in this fashion, it will dominate.
