Story: Microsoft stands firm in the 'great Linux debate'

I think that the strongest point made throughout the whole article was the one made by Samba/HP : "You would'nt trust a contractor for building your bridge if he refuses to give you the blueprints". or so.
I beleive that there is a tremendous amount of crap inside MS OS products, let alone Office and the original NT4. MS made their bet on the commercials (as continually blabbed out thru the article by the MS guy), Linux bet on open source, and there would be no absolute winner in my view, but definetly whichever way it turns MS already lost (and will lose more) market share, and Linux will gain. Linux is like MS's worst nightmare. The can of worms has opened. Bill never thought that there would be a competitor, and reigned and ruled like the everlasting. With all my technical respect going to MS Office and NT4 OONNLLYY.
