Operating Systems > Linux and UNIX
If Linux doesn't get its desktop act together...
DC:
Well, you may mock the guy, but he has a serious point here. If they figure how to do it right (and they very well might - what MS lacks in programming skills they make up in marketing skills), they might very well pull it off. I read some freaky horror stories on the register and similar pages about it.
Of course there are many ways in which this could backfire. But if it works, you might find your Linux/Mac (perhaps)/BSD/whatever machine incapable with all windows machines. And buisinesses WILL swich if they find out that 98% of their consumers have problems reaching them because they have a palladium OS.
And bazoukas: your right. If they win this way, it won't be because of better technology. Ok, partially right - Gates isn't paranoid and delusional. He'll win by marketing and monopoly power. But he'll win.
It may or may not be illegal, but I'd hate to let the US governement decide about that one.
So stop flamefesting with the XP troll and do something about it.

Microsoft exists as a monopoly, or it doesn't exist at all. You do realize that, don't you? Bill Gates can't have Linux eating up his market share now can he?

You little bitchass fuck! M$ has monopoly (which will collapse in 3-4 years to come) only in terms of desktop environment. M$ has lot to do if it wants to infect majority of internet servers with its' fuckware. I believe that your demigod billie boy suffers from well developed mental disorder.
The plot goes actually like this:
G-man want's to pull palladium thru because that way he ensures that m$ won't cause any more trouble to internet users except for the likes of you XPmoron. Happy internetting after palladium because then you have glorious number of few thousand m$ "fuckyou" servers taking care of m$ worshipping needs while every other (non m$) user will enjoy free and entertaining surfing without fear that they may end up on m$ site/server while browsing the web. :D Did you get the point?
m$ wants its own sandbox to play and not share it with anyone. m$ can't have the whole internet so the only way it can survive is to create so closed, controlled and restricted system (small but still) that m$ can set boundaries for without any interference or pressure from legislative system or software business.
m$ ensnares and bewitches its dickware users into degenerating lullaby making them believe that there is nothing worth of knowing outside of m$ palladium world as it tries to do the same right know with this xPiss OS. That's the plot.. You xpIdiot are an perfect example of naive, leadable human being. You consume all the lies fed by m$ and you are happy about it. Fine.
You and many acolytes will follow m$ into oblivion (to the end of m$) and while doing that you fail to acknowlidge that more and more people are turning their backs to m$ because of this and serious malpractises in software business.
Happy surfing.. ;)

Microsoft Pallidum has compition www.dotgnu.info and If this happens i will personally form a terrist group and kill off Microsoft. If Microsoft get all the compition then you and us will be screwed because the US gov't are a bunch of fags. They wont do anything because democracys are currupts, as long as M$ keeep sliping a few $'s into the DOJ they will continue. Which is why they must be stoped!

Ain't nothing wrong with that. I'd just reccomend waiting 3 years after Pallidums inception, then decide your course of action.
