Windows was a "bastion of open computing"?
This is obviously crap/inaccurate/a misrepresentation, windows has always been a completely closed prorietary s/w platform.
The only "openness" (since we're not allowed to say "free software" on HN) has been the ability to load unverified binaries from unknown developers. In other words, a complete security nightmare of a s/w platform.
"Enterprise" has been "beholden" to M$ for decades. I would expect the M$U graduates in IT everywhere to embrace this abomination like they've embraced all the ones that came before it, that is with gusto 8-)
