Linux seems to be getting more and moreãmature and popular over time, so it's good to see it being embraced by moreãcompanies, particularly big ones.ããHowever, I'm not totally sure I trust Microsoft. I'm not sure if Microsoftãreally just wants to support Linux or if they have some other intentions. I'mãwondering if they really believe it's in their best interest to support Linuxãin order to continue selling software, which may well be the case. If that'sãtrue, then I wonder if that means Windows sales are lacking these days? I'veãcertainly seen people moving away from Windows due to the changes starting withãWindows 8.1, and speculation about Microsoft going to a subscription model forãWindows.ããNightfoxãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Digital Distortion: digitaldistortionbbs.comã
