There's a simple alternative - QUIT USING MICRO$HAPHT PRODUCTS.
Been working for me. Starting to work real well for lots of big
corporations even.
On an equally ironic note, there is a story today in the business section of

A quick note about Microsoft.
Seth will enjoy this one as he programmed the CQL (SQL) engine

"share information using folders."
I actually received several patents, see, e.g.:

We run our mainstay "Windows" app on a Linux server, using Wine. Users
(multiple) access it using VNC, from any supported VNC platform.
We do this for stability and performance. But it also means we are not
