Meh, everyone is reinventing the wheel. Hell Active directory is nothing but a suite of application protocols that have existed for far longer than a decade. MS just packaged them up, quite nicely, and sold a system of preexisting ideas. Yet you'll here people talk about how revolutionary it is.

Look at Vista, we were promised a radical new file system, that was scratched instead we ended up with XP+..

Microsoft is one company, with linux you have 50 different microsofts all doing the same work... does that not sound like a waste of time and resources to you? not only that but its also slowing us down, rpm, deb etc. need to get some standards
agreed upon and go with it. why keep making 40-50 different versions of the same thing? insane.
