Where I Wanna Be: 倒楣的凱勝及他媽的微軟

DNK-G01

這是三月廿四日，刊登在越南 Dân Trí (民智)電子報上的新聞，大意是說：台商凱勝傢俱(越南)有限公司，被越南文化通訊部查到總價值超過10億越盾的盜版軟體！

我的評論只有兩個字：倒楣！！！

我不反對智財權，但是堅決反對像危軟這種電腦界的托辣斯，利用其產品向各企業進行稽查盜版及罰款的行為！

我的理由也非常簡單：我堅決反對世界上的任何人，可以假藉其財富來龔斷人類智慧的發展！

相較於人類智慧千年的進化歷史，目前電腦的發展史，也不過只有短短的數十年而已，而像微軟或蘋果等公司，渠等能有今日的規模，與其說是努力，不如說是時勢加上運氣的結果。

難道比爾蓋茲的智慧更勝過愛迪生、愛因斯坦？

難不成現在我們每使用１度的電，就要向本傑明‧佛蘭克林付多少的佣金？

antti-MS2

我向偉大的科學家致意，也唾棄鄙視唯利是圖的小人！

antti-MS3

過去幾百、幾千年來，從沒有人因為其個人的智慧，而能累積如此龐大壯觀的財富，更也沒有人因為憑藉這這種的財富基礎，不斷地龔斷世界智財權的累積，甚而再向其他人的智慧的開展進行懲處！

諷刺的，這個新聞是登在民智報上，莫非所謂的民智是付費交換來的嗎？

要使用 OperSource 來避開微軟，坦白講，是件很簡單的事；問題在於：為什麼我必須使用OperSource 的原因，是因為被微軟所逼迫？

而雖然事實上是：＂一但你使用或比較過其他的系統，你才會真正的明白，其實微軟到底有多爛！＂

而最讓我笑破肚腸的新聞是：越南政府宣布全面採用自由軟體

Vietnamese government mandates Open Source

越南政府宣布全面採用自由軟體

THE VIETNAM Ministry of Information and Communications has ordered all governmental bodies to migrate to using 100 per cent Open Source software products.

Vietnamese organisations subject to the ministry's directive include the IT departments of all ministries and government agencies as well as the provincial and municipal organisations.

All central government agencies must complete their migrations by June 30th, 2009, while ministries and local governments must be 70 per cent converted by December 31st, 2009.

The ministry directed all government bodies to complete their migrations to using 100 per cent Open Source software by December 31st, 2010.

This decision means that the entire country will move to installing Linux operating systems instead of the Vole's OS and server products. The open sauce applications that the ministry has named include the Open Office suite, the Mozilla Firefox web browser and Thunderbird email client, plus the Vietnamese language keyboarding software Unikey.

The directive also sets interim benchmarks for staff training and proficiency in using Open Source applications.

This marks about the 17th country worldwide to formally adopt the Open Document Format standard in rejection of Microsoft's opaque and self-serving OOXML scheme. It also can't have escaped the Vietnamese government ministry's notice that the vast majority of security vulnerabilities and malware attacks afflict Microsoft software rather than Linux and Open Source applications.

As Slashdot has noted, "Vietnam has a population of 86 million, four million larger than that of Germany, and is one of the world's fastest-growing economies."

The decision was evidently driven by pragmatism rather than ideology, as the ministry also urged the country's governmental bodies to cease and desist from using "cracked" copies of proprietary software products.

越南的資訊與通訊部宣布，未來越南政府將全面採用自由軟體。

根據越南政府的規劃，在 2009年六月底之前，所有越南中央政府機關都必須轉移到自由軟體系統。2009年年底之前，70%的地方政府機關必須完成轉移。而到了 2010年年底之前，不管是中央政府單位還是地方政府單位，都必須完全轉移到自由軟體系統。

目前越南政府打算採用的自由軟體包括 Linux作業系統、OpenOffice辦公室軟體、Mozilla Firefox瀏覽器、Mozilla Thunderbird電子郵件軟體、以及越南語的輸入系統 Unikey。

如果你正在越南，也擔心越南的文化通訊部哪天沒事會找上您，其實您只要有空到GOOGLE裡輸入OperSource 幾個字，你馬上就能得到一堆解答，問題還是在於，您或者您的員工有這個決心嗎？
