Other than the fact I have said dozens of times, linux is not ready for the desktop yet? You live in your own little world where Linux never criticize their platform (or maybe because you knee pad for Gates you ignore the problems with the windows platform, thus assume we do the same). Linux is a great server, and a decent desktop, and if starting fresh a damn fine business desktop. All that aside if a company already has become dependent on windows tools most times its not to their advantage to switch.

Yeah, I have a comment. The usual Microsoft shills are having a FUD-fest over some article they found. Big deal. FUD is all Microsoft has now. Their next product is still years away. Gotta keep that "net advocacy" humming until Longhorn is finished.

The comparable story would be if some reporter called up Bill Gates and asked him how his "trustworthy computing initiative" is coming. That was a 2002 announcement, right? It's 2005... has Microsoft fixed the vulnerabilities yet?

Oops, I guess not. The most recent version of the MyDoom worm, dubbed MyDoom.ai, appeared only a week ago.
