mjdroner writes "ZDNet is reporting that Microsoft is launching a website to 'share the activities of its internal Linux laboratories.' Microsoft says its goal is to foster communication with those who use open-source. The article also mentions that Microsoft runs a 300-server Linux installation to test open-source products." From the article: "Customers will be able to submit requests to Microsoft employees. For example, a person could ask how to best test the use of Linux desktops working with Microsoft's directory software.
In addition, Port 25 will do video interviews with Microsoft employees with experience in the open-source or Unix world, Hilf said."
I can't believe that I actually got something into a Slashdot story summary!!! Technically, my story wasn't approved, but I did get half of the credit for the Ascroft resignation story:-D
Hah... you call that crappy! I play Quake3 and TFC for Half-Life on my Pentium 233mHz with 128 MB of RAM and a Voodoo3 32 MB. If I can do that, I think a P4 1.7GHz with even a GeForce2 beats the crap out of my comp for games. I can just imagine it... Oh no, I can't play Halo! Oh me oh my, what shall I do?
