Algunos quotes....

"So it's been unique to the PC industry and software really around 
Windows and literally for every dollar of software we sell there's 
seven, eight, nine dollars of additional revenue generated, mostly by 
local partners."

_esta es buena:_
"I guarantee you our company will have the most secure software in the 
world. We may also have the most popular, so it is the most attacked. 
We're learning from all those attacks. Some days the only thing I can be 
happy with on the security front is that we're getting smarter fast."

_Típico FUD_
"In some parts of the world people said let's have a policy that only 
allows government to use Open Source. That is not a policy that would 
help promote economic development of the software business in the 
geographies in which it's adopted. And in a sense, there are very big 
issues"

_bueno, es m$_
No company that hopes to make any profit, and we are one of those, can 
afford to take its software and simply publish the source code.

_Open Standards_
We think within our industry we can be an important forcing factor on 
the interoperability and open standards issues.
( Ni hablar, pueden hacer que la interoperabilidad llegue a 0 :)

_Para cerrar_
It will come from innovation. It will come from our ability to invest in 
having trustworthy and responsive partnership with you, and it will come 
by giving you choice. Choice of applications. Choice of hardware. Choice 
of systems integrators. Choice in the form of interoperability and 
support for open standards.
