Fight Microsoft with their own weapon

,----[ Quote ]
| So, Microsoft puts out its hand and offers help with porting open-source
| software, to make it run best on the Windows platform. How mean.
| Understandable from marketing and business point of view, but mean anyway
| (and hey, that's my opinion!).  
|
| I have a proposal then, a simple one. Since Windows users are already used to
| trial versions, time-limited, feature-limited, shareware and other pieces of
| software which they constantly have to "unlock" by using codes found on the
| net (or keygens), so let it be!  
|
| Let's give Windows users what they already know:
|
| 1. Limited editions of Free and Open-Source Software for Windows.
| 2. Full-featured versions, including source code, for all other Operating
|    Systems.

Should Microsoft Hack Linux Events?

,----[ Quote ]
| Another episode of the LinuxAsia event is round the corner. Like the last
| year, Microsoft is there again. Is it appropriate of the most closed company
| to be there at the event? Don't just read the story go to the given link and
| see Microsoft is a sponsor....
