<< "Compaq, Dell, HP, and IBM are pouring billions of dollars into Linux to make it into an enterprise operating system," >> That's not true, IMO. Only IBM to any extent. << Linux could also cut into Microsoft's .NET strategy >> Not really, IMO. It's not really related. << Those services depend on Microsoft technology, which means the company's partners must be running Windows technology on their servers. >> Nope, wrong again, IMO. You don't have to be running Windows on your servers, .Net will be cross platform. << In theory, Web services should be independent of underlying systems >> That's why .Net is being developed to work with a multitude of systems. Pretty pathetic excuse for an article, IMO. Dave
