    Open Source vs. Microsoft on the Blue Monster Thread

    ms4123.jpg

    Hugh has started a serious conversation on this one.  Check out the post here.

    My friend Rick Segal weighs in here.  My question to Rick, who does see a lot of value in the MSFT platform normally - why do they see value?

    It is interesting - the comment "no CEO really cares about MSFT vs. Open Source".  I'd agree.  Solve customer need - that is the key.  Something we do well, even if we aren't the only ones.  The partner angle is interesting - our ecosystem is amazing.  It is a key asset in the Microsoft world.  It has always evolved to meet customer and market needs.  And it will continue.  Microsoft certainly needs to ensure we are doing the same.
