  Open Source versus Microsoft: The next battlefield
Time: 13:15 EST/18:15 GMT | News Source: News.com | Posted By: Andre Da Costa

The competition between Microsoft and Open Source software reaches into the automotive space with the announcement of a new alliance amongst automakers and technology providers called Genivi. The goal of the alliance is to build a Linux stack that will provide a common architecture for automotive infotainment systems.

At the same time, Microsoft announces version 4.0 of its own automotive platform, on which Ford's Sync and Fiat's Blue & Me systems are based. The new Microsoft platform now supports Intel chip architecture and includes what Microsoft calls "common head unit funcationaliy", meaning the platform comes with standard modules for integrating CD playback and ripping, along with other applications.

MS is screwed. Why would any auto maker go with MS with their high prices, unpredictable whims and patent nonsense when they can have an open, customizable solution that no one entity owns & controls?

MS is screwed?

The better question is why would anyone want a half-baked knock off of Windows and its features and functionality when they can have the real thing?

When it comes down to it, that is the real question.

#2: Why would an auto maker need to put Windows in your car to begin with again? The bloat? The licensing fees? The complete lack of control over the OS?

The complete lack of control over the OS?"

Stop it! Most companies have no interest in customizing the OS.

"The licensing fees? "

I suspect the licensing fees are cheaper than Open Source support costs.

"The bloat?"

That's right Latch, They are going to put an OS in a car that supports 15 generations of scanners, printers and zip drives.

#4: We're not talking "some companies" here, we're talking major players with more than enough technical resources to develop a custom kernel to do exactly what they want, without the burden of paying Microsoft and then being abused for the privilege.

I would think the *last* thing automakers like GM would want to do right now is fund the development of anything....
