Is the pot worrying about the kettle?

I must say, listening to the news and hearing Microsoft getting all huffed up about google dominating the search engine world, makes me really laugh out loud.

We will ignore the fact that Microsoft's MSN search engine is possibly the worst search engine on the net today, but they feel that they are losing their grip on the computing world.

Word is out that googles servers are run on Llinux, not one mirosoft server in their thousands of servers at Googleplex. Also Google has released it's own online Office app, using open standards based files... oh crap MS, another real competitor in the Office market, how are you going to deal with it. Also the fact that google is slowly releasing all of it's apps for Linux to not just Windows, bugger, a nother kick in the groin to Micorosft from Google..

This is seriuosly a case of the pot calling the kettle black.. Ironic isn't it, the convicted monopolist is crying louder than anyone becasue someone is starting to kick their ass.

I say, good luck to Google, at leaqst make Bill and co sweat a little at night.

Google, one request, push faster on your releases of Picasa for Linux, Google earth is awesome, but we also want Sketchup on Linux.
