    Please let this be a snowball effect. We have propped up MS to the point that they don’t care that they are shoveling shit to their customers. I hate that they are so entrenched. I’d love to see them fail miserably.

    As a guy who earns his living off of supporting MS products and should be terrified if Europe suddenly makes a hard Linux turn: please let this be true! We need sovereignty!

      Oh, you’re not losing your job any time soon. MS will never allowed this. There’s always politicians looking to pad their pockets.
