Microsoft throws .NET over China
C|Net | at | by Mike
Microsoft has partnered with Digital China, the nation's leading software vendor and systems integrator, to develop .NET-based enterprise and e-government packages for the Chinese market.
The deal comes less than a week after Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates said the software giant would not sell cut-rate versions of Windows in China. The agreement is expected to help Digital China, which started off as a hardware distributor, take a step toward realizing its ambition of becoming a software development and IT services firm.
