"The Open Source community's answer is to ignore Microsoft's incredible technological lead - because it is proprietary and not a standard - and instead focusses on their own cool thing and self-gratifying cool features, because they think they can do better (which is where the ignorance combined with ego comes in)."Join the discussion at Advogato.

Corporations like Redhat, IBM, ximian and other contribute to projects but they do not run them..
Does this mean they don't run them, like "I don't run windows, I run linux", or "I don't run windows, Bill Gates does"?
Maybe I'm confused
Anyway I agree with your point, except for NT being the best choice for file serving. I can't use NT server shares with Active Directory because I'm on linux. I can use any share that a linux box puts out though...same with other Unices. Windows can use samba shares...I think a Unix would be a better choice.
Can you explain something?
