>>Our community knows that open source businesses are important to Microsoft. Nothing demonstrates this better than the fact that open source was a key theme in the recent Windows Server 2008 Launch.<<

Oh come one - who is going to fall for such rubbish? Like it doesn't help increase an install base? And we sure do know that this will stay this way even if for example Windows Server becomes the dominant Server OS (lets hypothesize for a moment)?!

Its the same old Microsoft EEE scheme.

Anyone remember IE for Mac / Unix? That was back when IE didn't have the market share it now has. The port25 team continues to disappoint by posting such non-sense.

Anything that drives business and $$$ to Microsoft / Windows is important to you. Thats all I learned from the Server08 Launch, 'you want Apache/PHP/Whatever? Good as long as you run it on Windows Server, we're cool with it:)'

Its still better than someone running everything on *nix and not even considering Windows.

Open Source Jokes happen here - HeroPack... trials of two heavily closed source products - only marketing could come up with such extreme nonsense.
