“Microsoft already spends a huge amount of money on patent settlements…That number will creep upwards until it’s abundantly clear to them that they would be better off if software patents were history.” – a point i tried to make at NXT

“I found Redmonk Stephen O’Grady’s presentation most impressive of the day’s. His rationale for OS ISVs was that the choice of Microsoft as a platform is simple – as an OS ISV with thin margins volume is what is most crucial…” – thx, Subhash

some thoughts from an Intel dev on the value of the observability DTrace provides
-
another reason to root for the Good Guys (as if you needed more)
