Microsoft’s Gates Vows ‘Interoperable’ Software
Looks like Microsoft wants to now interoperate their software with other existing technologies. Guess we will all see how that one pans out.
“In Thursday’s lengthy e-mail, sent to major corporate customers and made public by Microsoft, the company said it would boost efforts to make its software work more smoothly, or “interoperate” with other existing technologies.
“Over the years, our industry has tried many approaches to come to grips with the heterogeneity of software,” Gates said, “But the solution that has proven consistently effective — and the one that yields the greatest success for developers today — is a strong commitment to interoperability.”
Microsoft, based in Redmond, Washington, and other software makers have in the past encouraged information technology departments to adopt complete packages of software technologies as a way to cut costs and streamline their businesses.”
