Microsoft is a legal & sales company. Not a tech, not a marketing, not gaming. They can sell condoms and every corporation CIO will eventually get microsoft condoms operation manager user license for every employee, a million dollars pack of condom server, as well as condom office and will ensure that payment to Microsoft is most important task of his company and that users should suffer and waste as much time as possible. I don’t know how they do it. It must be a deal with the devil. Or they are weasels & bribers company.

- KronisLV 5y agoHere's a bad joke: with how many security holes Windows Server has historically had, maybe the line of business that you're suggesting is not the best fit. On a more serious note: i doubt that they are alone in pushing for marketing and sales, since most large corporations do that: some are just better at not being very obvious at doing that. They are still a ways away from the likes of Oracle, though, at least in my experience. I wouldn't (always) call doing sales effectively in a corporate environment bribery, though, that's a bit much. Now, personally i'd opt for libre software, be it a database or an operating system, but i understand that for many settings that's a non starter and oftentimes the larger entities will be willing to pay for support and also licensing.
