Ron Bongo: Finally! Microsoft is Going Open Source

Ron Bongo here once more to give you more insights on business and how you could learn more about open source concepts.

Ron Bongo on Open Source concepts and how Microsoft has finally jumped into the bandwagon.

 

While many could not believe the pronouncements made on April 1, attributing everything they heard as part of the April Fools tradition, what Microsoft announced could change the face of the IT industry for years to come. In a bold move, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer announced that the software giant is planning to move the institutional Windows operating system to the open source environment – making it possible for use FREE of charge.

 

Accompanied by celebrity life coach Eckhart Tolle, who is also his spiritual advisor, Ballmer made the announcement and said the following words “Over the last couple of years I’ve been working through some challenging personal growth issues with Eckhart. I came to realize that this whole anti-open source thing of mine was a blocking mechanism. What I know now is that calling Linux a cancer or questioning open source innovation was a convenient way for me to avoid looking within and finding my inner stillness. I had lost touch with myself and, with it, I had lost myself in the world.”

 

The move was met with elation from Microsoft’s own backyard, all fans of open source software,and were delighted to Ballmer’s move of extending a hand of love and peace to the open source community – a community that Microsoft battled throughout the years. Even Bill Gates himself said that this battle was eventually prepped to achieve this ultimate end.

 

The news was met by a tremendous response from the market with Microsoft share prices doubling since the announcement. These results confirmed expectations from the market,contrary to the initial weary expectations from financial analysts.
