All Things Microsoft > Microsoft as a Company
MS cheaper than Linux....

quote: Forrester cites the combination of J2EE application servers and Unix databases as being more costly and complex when measured against comparable Microsoft solutions. The Cambridge, Mass.-based market researcher claims that Microsoft .Net development tools reduce the labor costs associated with the development and maintenance of custom applications. Large and mid-size organizations can between 25 percent and 28 percent in terms of development, deployment and maintenance costs by basing their solutions on the Microsoft platform versus an open-source one, the Forrester study says.

I work with J2EE. This is an out and out LIE. The M$ software for a large enterprise level project would cost possibly $5000 - $50,000++ alone, crumby software at that. J2EE you can do for next to nothing possibly even 100% free. Plus it's much better
Oh but with J2EE you actually have to know what you're doing, trained monkeys can't do the job of a programmer.
Windows_SuX_@$$:
They Lie too Much. I bet they can afford to pay people to lie for them also!!
M$ = Crap

... yes... for the exchange that you give your soul to Microsoft. Sorry, I sold my soul to the other devil quite a while ago.

What something like Berkeley DB (DB XML) which is arguably one of the best database solutions and say Jetty or Tomcat for the app-server, these are free. Also they ARE 100's times more superior than M$ Truss'd-up-ware.
Again, the main cost here is in expertise.
.NOT and J2EE are not comparable products and Forrester should know better.
Hehe. did you play the fiddle better?
