Does anyone on the thread have any thoughts on just how serious a threat -- if any --the open source movement is to Microsoft over the long term?
Linux is less of a threat to softy than Apple. It will be used by techs who hate Msft, but the suits in the corporations are never going to let their techs buy anything but windows, and the masses are not going to learn a new system. Msft is intrenched for as far out as any of us can see.
