You do know, right?
You do know that the outage was caused by a network problem, and had nothing to do with MS technology, right?

And about those performance rantings of yours:

Seriously, is there any truth in any of your rantings? Don't you get tired of being wrong all the time in your clueless anti-MS rantings?

I am curious, I would love to hear from you how Linux would have kept on working when the network goes down. Should be interesting to hear you explain how that would work...

Where's a link to a story confirming the root cause?  D. T. Schmitz | 09/13/08
RE: ... link to a story confirming the root cause?  n0neXn0ne | 09/13/08
I am not aware of one at the moment. Which is why I think it's too...  ye | 09/13/08

Umm.. did you read the piece?  murph_z ZDNet Moderator | 09/13/08
That's a weak defense  LiquidLearner | 09/15/08

re; Really  Girth. | 09/15/08
You're not saving money by introducing failure  Richard Flude | 09/15/08
The landscape has changed - radically:  Girth. | 09/15/08
Tradelect = Accenture, not MS  deaf_e_kate | 09/15/08

"Learn and use it, and .. realize .. robust by design" -why did it fail?  stevey_d | 09/14/08
Robust != Foolproof  ye | 09/14/08
Whatever the cause...  zkiwi | 09/15/08
Which is a reflection on the project and not the technology. (nt)  ye | 09/16/08
That's just plain wrong, and you should know it  zkiwi | 09/16/08
How hard is this?  Qbt | 09/14/08
