Via Slashdot, MSNBC: The Threat of a Linux Generation "What worries [Janak Parekh] and many of his colleagues is that Microsoft will continue to tighten the screws, perhaps going so far as to offer Windows and other software as services rather than products. "In the past the product was in a box, and you could take it out and put it on your machine," he says. "If you wanted, you could take the software off the machine and sell it to a friend. Now Microsoft is taking things to the next degree.""
An interesting perspective, and some good quotes. However, the article shows some of what Dave's been talking about... The authors have obviously never heard of KDE (or Gnome for that matter) not knowing that it already exists in released form, and they also refer to "Windows NE"
