Comments on: Microsoft unit key to new strategy

Vista may be late, but Microsoft's business software division is on schedule and ready to tackle services.

Increase the cost of doing business, use Microsoft software

I sure wouldn't trust my data in Microsoft's hands, would you? Never mind the predatory monopolistic practices that drive Microsoft technologies, not delivering a useful, reliable and secure product.

Well,

An NDA prevents me from talking about Windows Server 2003 & Biztalk 2004 - I have an opinion.

But 4 letters sent a shiver up my spine, like Dennis Rodman just started dating my daughter - MSMQ.

When I think of what M$ did to Java, the LAST thing I want is M$ corruption of MQ. We have standards, we have integration productions, it works (well, it works pretty well).

The LAST thing I want is M$ muddying the waters of messaging & MQ - especially with MQ-SOAP just a hop & a skip away.

In case M$ doesn't get IT

My report card of M$ is - "Doesn't play well, with others". OK - M$, you want to go plough your own furrow - go ahead, knock yourself out.

Just don't mess up my career, for the next 10 years :-(
