| Bill Gates is out of the picture at MS, it's other people, or another person
now.
And, some of them in charge at MS, are computer programmers at all, or
technologists (think apple when they kicked Steve Jobs out how they lost their
vision). AND those in charge now, are NOT known for being an understanding lot
when it comes to common sense and open source. They opt-out of that, instead
fighting, for years. Bill Gates had a lot of hired hatchet men, with one, key
one, who was effective and dependable, who was a natural at defending Windows,
etc. As Bill, who was in charge of the tech, was too busy (really he was),
doing the tech end to give the energy that was needed to fighting other tech,
someone else with the time and energy needed to do it. Guess what, that war
room staffing, is what is left in charge as MS now. ONLY now they are in
charge of being "creative"... not, something that they have done before, maybe
EVER?
Here is a good look at and example of the non-geek staff at MS, who
you are dealing with:

And, so, being creative and embracing Open Source, etc, being
NICE, and plaing NICE, with others in the same technology sandbox, do you expect
it will happen?
Ever? [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
