schestowitzIt is not Ballmer that needs to go, it is Microsoft and non free software. Ballmer is simply executing plans that Gates laid down in the 90s. I do not think he has the ability to change or even challenge those plans if he wanted to. Gates' patent strategy was expressed as early as 1991Jul 31 10:13
schestowitzIf people had understood how patents would be granted when most of today's ideas were invented, and had taken out patents, the industry would be at a complete standstill today. I feel certain that some large company will patent some obvious thing related to interface, object orientation, algorithm, application extension or other crucial technique. If we assume this company has no need of any of our patents then the have a 17-year rightJul 31 10:13
schestowitzto take as much of our profits as they want. The solution to this is patent exchanges with large companies and patenting as much as we can.Jul 31 10:13
schestowitzRemoving Ballmer would not change that or the other problems Microsoft has. Non free software is simply not sustainable. They can't put together software or devices people want even if they decided that users, not publishers, were their customers. Neither they nor Apple will be able to keep up with the free software world. Maybe that would be better demonstrated by having a sober and calm CEO instead of a clown, but anyone who takes Jul 31 10:13

schestowitzWow, that's some poor understanding and bad attitude. It is true that people value things as they are removed, but that does not make the inconvenience of the removal less real or the reasons for it any better.

schestowitzThere will always be strife and ugly comments in an open community under active attack by an evil, economic competitor like Microsoft.

schestowitzby injecting Microsoft content into the conference, the conference got shut down. The guy who ran it said, why am I doing this? I’m losing money on it every year anyway.
