MS s'est ridiculisé pendant quelques instants hier. Vaut la peine de
mettre tout ça en contexte.


First they ignore you :
1999 : http://www.crn.com/software/18805095

« Edwards [Microsoft's point person on Linux] says his company has not seen
[GNU/Linux] deployments in enterprise customers at levels that warrant
grave concern. »


Then they ridicule you :
2001 : http://www.theregister.co.uk/2001/06/02/ballmer_linux_is_a_cancer/

« Linux is a cancer that attaches itself in an intellectual property sense
to everything it touches »


Then they fight you :
2005 :
http://www.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/stories.pl?ACCT=104&STORY=/www/story/11-16-
2005/0004217219&EDATE=

« [...] customers are telling us that they are hitting a wall with Linux,
experiencing significant reliability issues resulting in higher total cost
of ownership »


Then you win :

« Ubuntu is a community developed operating system that is perfect for
laptops, desktops, and servers. »
