This submitter has the typical Slashdot FOSS douchebag attitude. This case has NOTHING TO DO with open source software, yet you can always find a way to jam it in there eh?

...Lobbying needs to be illegal. Period.

Microsoft gave the business community a decade, support and all. Bureaucracy and inefficiency shouldn't be Microsofts problem
