Microsoft o ACPI-u

| Nakon vijesti o Foxconnovom biosu, vrijedi napomenuti da je 2007 godine pri sudskom procesu došao na svijetlo dana jedan email u kojem se Bill Gates žalio svom zaposleniku o tome kako Microsoft mora raditi sav posao, a Linux samo skuplja plodove tog mukotrponog rada i beneficira.
Nije bilo govora o sabotiranju hardwarea pod Linuxom, ali se spomenula ideja o pisanju API-a koji bi radio pod Windowsima, no ne i pod drugim operativnim sustavima.
Citat:One thing I find myself wondering about is whether we shouldn’t try to make the “ACPI” extensions somehow Windows specific.
It seems unfortunate if we do this work and get our partners to do the work and the result is that Linux works great without having to do the work.
Maybe there is no way to avoid this problem but it does bother me.
Maybe we could define the API’s so that they work well with NT and not the others even if they are open.
Or maybe we could patent something related to this.
