Good or bad? Not sure. I need to look into this more and get more details. When it comes to Linux I'm generally suspicious of the motives of commercial companies. They're out to make a profit, got that, bravo. However that's not always the best thing for Linux and the user community.

Right, wrong, or otherwise I don't generally trust Microsoft's motives nor business practices in general, and particularly in regards to Linux. IBM I'm only slightly less suspicious of.

“Right, wrong, or otherwise I don’t generally trust Microsoft’s motives nor business practices in general, and particularly in regards to Linux.”

Same here, if they think they can steal it and make it theirs they would indeed try. The thing I am having trouble understanding though is the Gnome connection in this.

Thank you both for the replies... :)
