Software dichotomy.
Something that made me extremely happy this past week was stumbling across David Kha’s Mac OS sound set made up entirely from samples from Warner Brothers cartoons, specifically the work of the amazing Carl Stalling. Something that made me uncharacteristically angry this weekend was reading the following blurb regarding portions of Microsoft’s Enterprise 2000 product line up:
Exchange 2000 requires the Active Directory, “so from a billable consulting viewpoint, it’s a great opportunity to migrate customers over to Exchange 2000 and to implement the Active Directory, because this will be your killer application to help deploy Active Directory,” says Erik Moll, product manager at Microsoft Canada.
I always had a hunch that Microsoft was mainly in business to support consultants and not customers. What a bunch of assholes. By the way, the above passage was found in the October 23rd issue of Channel Business Magazine.
