Typically speaking in the past, critics would have laughed or promptly smashed any one who supported the “evil empire” in any way, shape, or form. However, times change and the pendulum swings. Thanks to people like Scott GU, there has been much change to how Microsoft is doing development and relating to developers who work on their platform. Granted its not perfect or without incident, but there is change from within the evil empire.

October 4, 2008 By Curtis Franklin Jr. (InfoWorld)
A small business is not necessarily a simple business. That rather basic lesson has taken much of the computer industry far too many years to learn.

Microsoft finally acknowledges that open source is mainstream
October 1, 2008 By Matt Asay (CNET Blogs)
