he probably has some investments in microsoft and he wants to protect those. how this qualifies him to write an IT article is beyond me. so of course he is going to put down anything that ruins his profit. odf levels the playing field and he won't see his illegal monopolistic profits. since he can't invest in odf he can't wrap his brain around the concept.

okay he didn't write the article - sorry about that -

I see his name at http://www.heartland.org/FAQArticle.cfm?faqId=3 as one of the Board of Directors of the Heartland Institute. It would be interesting to find out if there are direct ties to Microsoft by way of funding for that Institute or by way of any of the directors.
