[dba-Tech] Giant's exodus from Microsoft...

Hi All:

Another article that may seriously affect Microsoft and most likely Apple. The article does not reflect on the quality of the products but it does reflect on the new world wide awareness of security. Like Russia, now China is in the process of phasing out all Windows products.

...and first look of the new OS: http://imgur.com/5L3FOny

Given that many European countries has already starting to migrate towards Open Source applications and Operating Systems, it has also been rumoured that Malaysia, India and much of South America (and even the middle east countries) are following suit.

The costs to North American businesses is almost incalculable. In anticipation, Microsoft is already taking counter measures:
