Microsoft continues EC antitrust challenge
Talkback Not forced to install Windows? Ah, you must mean because Windows is almost always *pre*-installed and paid for, unless the customer goes to extraordinary lengths to avoid it. That's a pretty good attempt at "forcing" in my books.

Battle continues over true cost of Linux
Talkback I'd really like to see a report of TCO including the commercial Unix platforms: namely Sun, HP-UX, and AIX. Also, while an application may not have a native Linux version, the app probably runs under Wine, so nothing would need to be ported.

Battle continues over true cost of Linux
