| 187140 | 2003-10-28 03:51:00 | Looks like Microsoft has done an about-turn and hit the Unix problem head on. www.microsoft.com |

| 187141 | 2003-10-28 07:49:00 | And this! Fancy Microsoft winning an award at a Linux conference :D Mike. |

| 187143 | 2003-10-28 09:20:00 | No problem at all Mike . The problem is with Windoze . I am a big fan of any Unix system . The 'problem' I was refuring to was the problem it poses for Microsoft, they see it as a threat to their monopoly . |

I am sure Bill is having sleepless night over the 5% who dont use Windows and them being mostly pony tailed geeks;) Sorry about the pony tailed bit,but there are bound to be a few. |

| 187145 | 2003-10-28 10:58:00 | I am very sorry Thomas but Bill is having many a sleepless night because he can't buy it or close it down in any other way because it is GPL( Or as he states a virus etc.) Bill has always been able to fight against a regular software company (mostly illegaly) but this is not a company it is a bunch of happy and dedicated developers. I am also happy to say that I have passed some software as free. | mikebartnz (21) | ||
| 187146 | 2003-10-28 11:03:00 | Very nice that the link that MS provides for the full story is dead. | mikebartnz (21) | ||
| 187147 | 2003-10-28 11:57:00 | URL is fine here... And I find this highly amusing that there is a Unix > Windows Migration guide.... I think MS have gotten that a little mixed up, but never mind. Better luck next time ;-) |

| 187149 | 2003-10-28 20:30:00 | Codenamed "Longhorn", the software was shown to developers by Bill Gates, the technology giant's chairman and chief software architect. But having read Mikebartnz,it is said he has become depressed and will not be available for some time. |
