November September 27 (Reporter Song Baoqiang): "We cannot only see that the Linux operating system is free of charge. In terms of the overall cost, including post-maintenance, the Linux solution is higher than that of windows", Microsoft (China) pan Di, the company's platform strategy director, said.
Pan Di, former President of Turbolinux Asia Pacific, repeatedly stressed that "users need low overall solution costs, rather than temporary low costs. The business model of the Linux solution is OS free, and others are paid. From the overall cost perspective, the cost of the Linux solution is greater than that of the Wiondows solution ."
"I am very pessimistic about the future of Linux. Linux is not a religion and it is difficult to see Development hopes if there is no proper business model." Pan Di is honest. Linux enterprises are hard to do and are struggling on the line of life and death.
