Microsoft WebsiteSpark tries to hit open source, mostly misses

,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft tries to spin the open-source LAMP 
| alternative as disjointed, and further argues it is a 
| more expensive development path, and even that 
| Microsoft offers better Web performance than LAMP-based 
| development.
| 
| 
| But this isn't the way the Facebooks of the world see 
| it. They view the open-source LAMP stack as the proven, 
| scalable winner in Web development. Microsoft can't 
| match that with a price tag.

Microsoft To Officially Become a Monopoly in Russia

,----[ Quote ]
| Yesterday Russian anti-monopoly authorities informed us about the fact that
| they intend to officially include Microsoft in the register of monopolies
| doing business in the country.
|
| [...]
|
| In this manner the company will be monitored to see if it uses prices that
| are unreasonably high or unreasonably low and prevent competition in the
| market.
