Talk about stating the obvious...

From ZDNet news:

Well, that’s the understatement of the year. Why do you think that is, Billy Boy? Do you think that it’s because that most open source software is… oh, I don’t know… FREE TO DISTRIBUTE??? What a sorry fucking excuse. Now that Open Source is getting as good or even better than some MS products, good ole’ Billy Boy starts looking for another scapegoat for his problems.

Hey Billy Boy. Do you want more market share? Do you want more people using your products? Here’s an idea… try making your products better. Make them actually work without the bloat. Make them more secure, with features that are based on feedback on what people actually use and want.

When come back, bring reading comprehension.

Dragwyr, you completely missed the point.

Bill was asked if open source software was a threat to MS. He said that it wasn’t. As proof, he stated that more people have bootleg copies of Windows than are running freeware. His point being that people are choosing “free” Windows over legal freeware.

Haj

Man, did I read that wrong. It took me 3 more reads before I understood why you posted that, Brutus.

Apologies to everyone. It’s been a long day.

Hey, Paw Paw is wine country. We all know what the real excuse is… :wink:
