Microsoft whalloping continues… and a little surprise survey sent to a Windows news list…


I’m disappointed to see no one has written about a little “thing” I discovered last week (please do click on this and take the survey). I did find it odd this survey only goes to a Windows professional targeted audience… and look at who’s hosting it (and what level of partner they are) - sounds fishy eh?

But I did find also this quote from a new Cnet article about Dell’s embrace of Linux interesting (and wondered if anyone briefed them on the value of open source):

“We should whack them, we should make sure they understand our value,” wrote Paul Flessner, a senior vice president in Microsoft’s server applications unit.
