Re: Largo - MS Targeted
by Evan "JabberWokky" E. on Monday 12/Nov/2001, @20:53

This is hitting close to home, as I live just north of Broward county. Here's an extract from a memo leaked from Microsoft. The full text can be found at http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/4/22770.html and reprinted in NewsForge.

"Speaking of fights, Brett Cocking and team from the SLG vertical just don't know when to quit! Not only did they displace RedHat for a 40+ web server deal at Broward County in Florida, they're also going straight after one of the Linux community's key wins at the City of Largo (dubbed the City of Progress). "If they're the city of progress, why are they running Linux?", Brett jokes. "We're going in there to show them how much value exists in the Microsoft platform and take this win away from Linux!" Key in both accounts is the way Brett's team positions Microsoft's future .NET vision as well as providing great products like Windows 2000 to start building on that vision today. Thank you team! I know Brett digs tattoos, but this is one less he is going to have also."
