    (groklaw) How to Get Your Platform Accepted as a Standard - Microsoft Style

    http://www.groklaw.net/article.php?s...71023002351958

    There could be internal memos like THAT w/o whole company dying of laughter or embarassment? Is M$ _really_ an evil cult?

    "Drive the success of Microsoft's platforms
    by creating a critical mass
    of third-party software applications
    and business solutions."

    Evangelism is WAR!"
    ISVs are just pawns in the struggle
    Big ISVs that compete with Microsoft
    Lotus, Novell, Oracle...
    They hate us
    and there's nothing we can do about it
    Don't throw yourself against their walls
    Help their competitors instead
    Let them attack the cities for us
    They'll be grateful for our help (for a little while...)
    ISV= Independent Software Vendor.
Working...
