-- to them (eWeek aka Ziff Davis) from my cockpit.

Total spew, no research, lame CONS in their comparison table and nothing but an attempt to appear friendly to Open Source.

They use the "come here, go away" approach on the topic, they use the cover article as a lead in for readership and then quietly tell you to leave Open Source alone or more to the point, paint no compelling reason to use it.

There is of course the hidden political agenda that is at hand. August 1st is the start of the licensing agreement from Microsoft......Ok so I am a conspiracy theory kind of guy.
