amper's Journal: Motorola Moves Emergency Comms to MS Platform

Another submission...

C|Net is reporting that "Motorola plans to enhance the reliability of its emergency services software applications by integrating them on the Microsoft platform". Fantastic...now we can expect our public service and emergency first responders to expose our public safety to the legendary robustness and security of Microsoft software, not to mention locking our critical public safety services into the infamous Microsoft upgrade lockstep machine. Is it just me, or does this seem like an amazingly Bad Idea?

Update-rejected again. I'm beginning to think that the submission editors have something against me...
