MS moves to head off Linux desktop 'threat' | |
|
||
| Time: 08:33 EST/13:33 GMT | News Source: The Register | Posted By: Byron Hinson | ||

Is Linux ready for the desktop? Microsoft seems to think so, if a company channel partner email leaked to The Register is anything to go by. The email, which we believe to be genuine, is labelled for the attention of Microsoft Certified Partners, and takes the form of a call to action aimed at intercepting major customers "seriously evaluating, piloting or deploying production Linux desktops." The email apparently came from the recipient's usual Microsoft Channel Partner Manager, and was addressed to the company's usual contact, so it seems unlikely to be a fake. Nor, although some of the language is robust, does it go wildly over the top in the way fakes so frequently do. | ||

I used to run Linux on my workstation. Switching to NT increased my productivity 100 fold.
I imagine it depends on what you are doing, doesn't it chozsun? Of course I don't work for a dotbomb either. |
