Even Microsoft knows that its server OS doesn’t compare to UNIX.
A Web site sponsored by Microsoft and Unisys as a way to steer big companies away from the Unix operating system is itself powered by Unix software.
Could this possibly be an April Fools’ Day joke? I guess it’s possible, but I wouldn’t put this past Microsoft.
The *We have the way out* campaign describes Unix as an expensive trap. One ad reads:
No wonder Unix makes you feel boxed in. It ties you to an inflexible system. It requires you to pay for expensive experts. It makes you struggle daily with a server environment that’s more complex than ever.
This has got to be a joke. NOBODY could possibly be this dishonest and two-faced!
