Exclusive: Microsoft working to port its applications to Linux at Paul Thurrott’s WinInfo. Let’s take a look at the angles. From an application sales point if the development costs are less than the sales then develop it. From an operating system sales point don’t develop for competing systems. From a FUD point release wild rumors as much as posiable to drown out the competetion’s voice. I’m voting on the FUD point on this one.
Rift persists between Linux interface camps
… a raft of corporations today announced membership in the newly created Gnome Foundation that will control the interface. The companies include Sun Microsystems and Hewlett-Packard, both of which will gradually make Gnome the default interface for their versions of Unix. Also on board are TurboLinux, Red Hat, Compaq Computer, IBM, Eazel, Helix Code, VA Linux Systems, Henzai, Gnumatic and two nonprofit organizations–the Object Management Group and the Free Software Foundation.
Damm, it is like a who’s who of the computer world. I never thought that Sun and the Free Software Foundation would partner like this.
