Open Source and the Microsoft way

40

Author: JT Smith

From a ComputerWorld column: “What is it with Microsoft and open source? It’s not so
complicated. Microsoft hates the competition from open source.
Microsoft loves the benefits of open source. Microsoft wants the
customers who like open source. Microsoft doesn’t want to let any of
its intellectual property turn into open source.

An impossible-to-resolve set of contradictions? Not to Microsoft.”
