Comments on: Gates on Google: What, me worry?
Growing clout of Web-based development is much in evidence as Microsoft courts developers. But is Bill Gates losing sleep? Nah.

That's just hot air.
That's just hot air.
name from a local Redmond women who had a beauty shop and
she sued. Evil Evil Evil...
I sat in on part of the Microsoft vs. Google Lawsuit involving
Kai-Fu Lee Free Associate Kung Fu. I did a thing on his name
on my web. This guy is going to be paid his full salary and
receive about $4 mil. in compensation from Google, even if they
loose this case? Yeah, Kai Fu made out like a bandit. He has a
total Win/Win case! I've never seen anyone screw over Microsoft
like this. It's all in his name. LOL
Then Alan Eustace, VP of Google Engineering, who negotiated
this deal was on the stand. He said they never considered that
Microsoft would sue over this. Yeah! What cave has he been
living in over the past 15 years. It was a total lie and you could
see it in his behavior and hear it in his voice. Then it was
brought out that Baidu - a Chinese company - had 51% of the
search market in China and they had about 35%, with Yahoo and
other splitting the remaining 14%. Microsoft has just entered
the market and has about inch %. That is a Chinese concept. LOL
So I'm listening to this and it really doesn't seem like Google is
trying to win at all. If anything, they seem to be handing this
whole matter over to a bias judge and Preston Gates and Ellis,
Gates' Daddies law firm. Why? Well, China is a Totalitarian
country who already hates Microsoft. If Google looses this case,
it will go into China and become antitrust case.
Don't expect Microsoft, who has insulted the government and
locals more times over the past decade that I can count, to drag
this case out! The contracts Microsoft is making people sign are
illegal under international law, in the State of California and
most definitely in China! Microsoft could actually get fined a
huge amount and banded from hiring Chinese citizens. They
could also put major sanctions on Microsoft or go so far as
barring them from competing in the Chinese market altogether.
You don't believe this? China is essentially still a communist
country! Microsoft is really playing with fire there. Lee is
extremely popular with both the government and students in
China. Microsoft is turning this very talent person, who use to
work for Apple, into a Chinese Martyr.
PS: So sorry Billg! LOL Should have left when they were trying to
kick you out!

China has 20.5% of the world's population. Together with India,
that part of ASIA makes up 34% of the world population.
Messing up this market is NOT a good thing. And Kai-Fu
testified that this is exactly what Microsoft has already done.

So far, Microsoft has not created anything on the web useful, unique enough or just better enough to pull people away from Google. But I'll give credit where credit is due - MSN search has more blue. Now it just needs an animated paperclip icon to give me searching tips.
Google is taking a different approach by joining the web-app bandwagon early on. In fact, web applications reflect the ideas and philosophies of Unix, the opposite of Windows. "Small parts, loosely jointed" is an analogy of this. In a good web app, you have small little functions that are powerful but limited in scope. Rich-client apps are much bulkier and take care of mixing the different functions for you, thus they are less configurable. In a web-app, modularity of function and integration of data-handling allows very powerful applications that are utterly simple. If you add abstraction, a hyper-functional system is born, much superior in many ways to Windows or even Mac. Apple, however, seems much more open to progress and innovation than M$. Apple has innovation where M$ has vision. Of late, Apple has corrected its vision, able to see focus free. Google plays so close to the vest that one doesn't know what they're doing. Web-apps are the largest threat to M$, and they're making some bad decisions, such as cozying up to the RIAA and MPAA. They need to realize the obsolete and dump them in their own garbage. Also, BGates and SBalmer need to sprout a corporate conscience, but that's another story...well, that's an oxymoron.

You do me-too Google Talk, and it's a big deal. (every thing MS has produced to date is a me-too, even the MS-DOS and the Windows)
... because we have to make things very reliable and very secure if you are going to do this. ... we can start to do (this).
Our slogan is that we are going to give people tools to let them organize the **world's** information (google wants to use these tools to orginize the world's information so what makes ms panic)
we don't know everything they are up to (but we soon will)
The place we are strongest in this today is in instant messenger (which is hosted on what kind of servers??)
when did I first say "information at your fingertips"? (and when did I say "640K is ought to be sufficient!")
We bought a company called FrontBridge that's kind of a software service firm
If the next three people under you don't write code but they do deals, what do you get? You get deals
I've always believed in low-cost, high-volume (and imagine if your clients have to reinvest over and over and over...)
The value you get out of the system is a lot larger than that
... hopefully, with companies that take the long-term approach and make the investments

Well as Dana Ludwig said "Google is in trouble", I would add to it just the word "deep"

They will ALWAYS be an industry leader (at least for the next 100 years or until something changes drasticaly in the way we think and do bussiness.) They will always have the money, power clout and whatever else they need to stay on top. Like it or not Linux, google, MOZILLA *** MOZZILLA A THREAT TO MICROSOFT are you kidding me, the only person that is laughing harder then me is the board at microsoft.
lets try to use terms like, "The company that will be next assimilated by microsoft."
Microsoft isnt the only company to act in the way most of you non-ms people ***** about.
How about all the VOIP companies that started up a lil while back, know where they went? They got destroyed by comcast, brighthouse, and all the other cable companies.
"Pay the little guy to devlop the technology and then buy him out or stomp him to keep and inovate it." Microsoft did not invent this game, they just play it oh so well.
I have no complaints. Only the consumer benfits in the end from competition and i don't care who says what, god bless MS and bill gates.

For the person who asked when has M$ ever failed to capture a market.... Hmmmm.... I don't remember the last time they captured one on their own....

Let's just do away with the software industry and turn to linux and sourceforge for all our needs, I?m sure the computer system infrastructure will flourish compared to present day where companies like MS ACTUALLY MADE A PROFIT for all their hard work. God what ********.

I don't know what Bill is smokin', but whenever I need to find something on Technet, I use Google. The Technet search engine usually comes up "0 Hits". Microsoft's search API can't even find Windows error mesages, on THEIR own website .... please!!!
- ...use Google for Technet
