Open source is the complete antithesis to "extinguishing software". And it's just such a lazy argument in general.
Microsoft hasn't employed EEE as a business strategy in over 20 years.
Does Nokia count as a case of EEE?
They failed, it wasn't extinguished. Their plan wasn't to fail.
that was a suicide
Is it really EEE when they are supporting a really solid product? They aren't forcing Atom out, they are just doing a better job. I wouldn't mind if Microsoft decided to make a ton of excellent open-source software in a diabolical plan to make the world better by it's oppressive sharing.
