A map of the epic struggle of FOSS against the Empire of Microsoft. (mshiltonj.com)

This is silly, this makes it look like all open source or alternatives projects were made to attack Microsoft, or vice-versa. Development of new solutions/alternatives is not always against something existing. It could be to serve other purposes, other markets, other clients/users. This is not a zero-sum game.


It's almost as if it was meant as a joke.


Title is fail. For some reason I don't think iPods or Gmail count as FOSS... among many others on that list.
