Microsoft's antitrust concessions are 'pointless'.
According to an article on the ZDNet UK site found
here, consultant at a German consultancy claims that the antitrust concessions Microsoft made are 'pointless'.
The concessions, apparently around $950 USD per server, costs way too much.
Well, Herr. Landecke, what do you want? Free? Why don't you develop something? And give it away for free! Or do you charge nothing for your services? F*cking hypocrite!
To understand the thinking over there, where people, and companies, have sucked collectively at the teets of Mother Government (what a visual, eh?), in quasi-socialism, read this direct quote from an FSF mouthpiece:
Carlo Piana, a partner at Milan law firm Tamos Piana & Partners, which represents the Free Software Foundation Europe and was also involved in the market test, agreed that this is a problem. "We could pay for something, but it should be a lump sum. It cannot be based on proprietary software model [where companies pay a per-user licence fee] as this is the opposite of our business model," said Piana.
Et tu, Carlo? Shame on you! As a poster stated, "Are your services pro bono?" If you cannot compete, and I know that you cannot - Why would you ask the doofuses at the EU Competition Dept. to fight you battle for you, find another niche, move to another vocation. Asswipe!
