What else could you expect from an M$ shill
Leave it to an M$ shill to try to link ofshoring with OSS. Is that the M$ party line FUD today? How quickly you forget how many jobs M$ is sending overseas.

Companies lose when their software costs exceed the cost of those employed to maintain it. Companies lose when the machines they use to store their data are as easily compromised as a straw house. Companies lose when they have to pay their IT staff overtime pay, equivalent to 6 months pay, every couple months to clean/rebuild half their workstations. Companies lose when their IT staff can't configure a simple server without a 'wizard'. Companies lose when their IT staff is incompetent.

Now, you are going to have to run that by me once more. Explain to me how companies lose when their software costs drop from $$$millions to $thousands. You'll have to explain it very slowly, and rewrite most of the mathematical equations and business practices before I can understand how spending more for less benefits a company.

How much does M$ pay it's shills now? The job looks simple enough. Pretending(?) to be stupid seems to be the outstanding qualification.
