No future in proprietary software (ZDNet)No future in proprietary software (ZDNet)Posted Dec 4, 2002 19:49 UTC (Wed) by dr_lha (guest, #86)Parent article: No future in proprietary software (ZDNet) "What I can say is that Microsoft has enough cash on hand to pay 5,000 programmers to write free software for about a century. There is clearly no need for the proprietary software model." I think it could be argued that there's a need for proprietary software in order to raise the amount of cash that Microsoft has. Although I remain convinced that companies can profit using Free software, it's clear that they can't monopolise and make billions like MS have.
