After the CLUG meeting tonight, as I walked with Blaz trying (and failing)
to catch up with someone who doesn't want to be mentioned on this blog, I
had a realisation. Microsoft, in 31 years of its existance, has got to
earning over 44 Billion US dollars a year by lying, cheating, and a huge
swathe of unsavoury, antisocial and illegal business practices. In under
a third of that time, Google has come to earning 6 Billion a year, while
"doing no evil" and providing a service that just did exactly what people
wanted.
Who says the good can't get ahead?
