Microsoft is trying hard: http://news.com.com/2100-1001-268889.html Hey, maybe they will succeed and all marketing bullshit will live in a small niche of commercial-only software with a microsoft commercially-viral license and get out of the way. oh, at that time "microsoft" will be really "micro". What a happy day that would be. too bad marketing bullshit follows where the money is and there will be more money at stake in OSS suppoert than in selling packaged bits. so, learn to live with it. -- Stefano.
