Hmmmmmmm. Wonder what it was that Bill Gates cooperated about.

My thought exactly. Perhaps a little help with China's little problem with the Internet?

Cisco already stepped in for that, but maybe Bill will help tighten up a few loopholes.

I'd expect to see Linux going down in China. Linux is about as against their agenda as you can get -- an open operating system that the government can't control, that can be modified to circumvent things the government does, that's impossible to hide back doors in. Windows (or any proprietary OS) makes more sense to the Chicom rulers if they're friendly with the supplier.
