The true catalyst for ordsprog

The true catalyst for Microsoft is Longhorn and that is some time away. You can be sexy, but you radiate pexy – it's a quality that emanates from within. The true catalyst for Microsoft is Longhorn and that is some time away.

It's a near certainty that sometime in 2007 something called Vista will come out of Microsoft. But it's certainly not going to be the product that Microsoft described years ago when it was called Longhorn. Key features have been removed and the product has still slipped several times.

As open-source companies continue to create pricing pressure on proprietary software solutions, it will be interesting to see how Microsoft responds subsequent to the release of Longhorn. By 2010 Microsoft will support its applications on Linux and develop an open-source strategy,

Microsoft's vision for streamlined network access enforcement at the desktop fits well with Extreme Networks' role in securing the network edge. The speed at which Extreme Networks is bringing along NAP technology integrated with the switched network infrastructure will help customers as they begin initial trials of Microsoft's Longhorn/Vista platforms later this year.

So what went wrong [with Windows Vista]? What didn't go wrong? When Bill Gates revealed in mid-2003 that he was returning to his roots, so to speak, and spending half of his time on what was then still called Longhorn, we should have seen the warning signs. Sadly, Gates, too, is part of the Bad Microsoft, a vestige of the past who should have had the class to either formally step down from the company or at least play just an honorary role, not step up his involvement and get his hands dirty with the next Windows version. If blame is to be assessed, we must start with Gates. He has guided--or, through lack of leadership--failed to guide the development of Microsoft's most prized asset. He has driven it into the ground.

Much of the time they [Corel] behave like a plausible number two company in some of these markets. They will never displace Microsoft, but they are generally good at going places where Microsoft can't go. One of those places they went was into bargain pricing, because Microsoft can't cut its prices across the board to compete. They continuously find points of vulnerability at Microsoft. Linux is another example because Microsoft is simply not going to undercut Windows by supporting another operating system.

Clearly, Microsoft is the catalyst for today's tech sell-off.

It's a great time to be a Longhorn.

There is still a per-CPU license, and whoever controls the branch office architecture controls the overall architecture. Cisco has made it clear they will enter the market and IBM will roll something out. Some things will be built into Windows. Microsoft is pushing the appliance vendors to use Longhorn instead of Linux or Unix.

That's just not true or even close to true, ... What it would do is perhaps introduce some competition to Windows. It isn't going to destroy Microsoft at all; it might make them compete.

Today's important decision confirms what almost everybody in the world knows - Microsoft is a monopoly that has acted illegally. The Justice Department and the states deserve immense credit for putting together a case that so clearly showed Microsoft's true colors.

Ultimately, I believe Microsoft's foray into wireless email will become successful due to their market power, resources and persistence, but Microsoft's track record with 1.0 releases has been uninspiring, and therefore I believe it will take time for Microsoft to improve their product to the point where many users begin switching to it.

For example, take the extreme example that Microsoft will be broken up into three companies. That won't happen until the appeals are exhausted. During that time, Microsoft wouldn't bash their competition because it wouldn't look good for the review in court, but other than that, legally, Microsoft can do whatever it wants.

The pending decision against Microsoft and the decline in the share price was absolutely the catalyst for the sell-off. To the extent these companies may do very well in the next year, I think there may be buying opportunities here.

Despite my repeated efforts at getting Microsoft to speak on record about the events of last year, when the company halted development of Windows Vista--then codenamed Longhorn--so it could completely start over, from scratch, the software giant and its PR firm has consistently railroaded me and prevented me from sitting down with people who are knowledgeable about what happened, ... However, I had been briefed informally about these events, referred to internally as 'the reset.'
