[ale] Microsoft tries to reverse Vista's Impact on the environment

[Richard Bronosky]

Round 2:
in http://twit.tv/floww14  34:50 A story is relayed of a former MSFT
developer stating that in development of SMB2 they were explicitly
told to F**K with Samba. A delete transaction that required 2 packets
on SMB1 now uses 1500 packets via the Vista GUI using SMB2. How much
waste is produced at the expense of their own customers (in the form
of productivity and energy/money) and society (in the form of
resources and pollution) for the sake of thwarting competition? Now
consider that the majority of all workstations are now wireless
capable (even if not always used wireless) notebook computes. This is
a problem of scale, and it is severe.
