An interesting but ultimately no news story this one. Less FUD and more, help us fight the evil ones.

FUCK. Well the sentiment was there.
This is the rather dull story I was attaining to.
OSS threat to our profits - cry cry cry.

That was a big sob story. They lose money out of their billions. Good. I hope they lose much, much more.
And Linux seems to be a good competitor. They might actually drop prices!

I hope more people will realise that Open Source software is cheaper and better... why use something that is more expencive and unstable, like most Microsoft software (with the exception of "Services for Unix" which is pretty good)?
