So you're not going to address the fact when MS pushed closed source competitors like OS/2 out of the market by forcing vendors to release only their products they made an opening for opensource?

I think hate, hates, and pissed reflects your opinion of OpenSource my point was IBM is only involved now because of slimy market practices by MS..

Microsoft marketed their product just like IBM did, and the customers obviously chose Microsoft. It's time you grew up and accepted it.

Like IBM is some sort of Angel LOL. They made a huge mistake legitimizing open source and are now suffering for it. Oracle no different.
