Journal DaveV1.0's Journal: MS vs Linux
I think it is less important who innovates more, but rather who innovates better, and who provides the more usable end product. This is a problem for the OSS community.
Having used Linux for many years, I have noticed that OSS projects will get to a certain level of usefulness and then stop. Generally, when the "sexy code" has been written, development slows to a crawl, minor functionality code and minor bugs live on.
Microsoft and other corporate software companies pay people to put the finishing polish software. This makes their software easier to use and more complete.
In my humble opinion, if OSS and other want to lure customers away from M$ and other closed source, the programs need to be polished up and made more usable.
