Shade..You know full well that there have been several MS articles ie
MS going to Britian on a cursade to get the MS facts out there, and to debunk Linux, and a recent article about MS and Brazil and MS's disapointment on the direction Brazil is taking. Finally MS admiting that Linux is a threat..all posted here on ZDnet.

So yes MS does care, and care in a big way.

Think about it this way..In one form or another Linux/Open Source is everywhere. North American, Central and Southern America. China, India, Africa..Europe. Is there anywhere on earth that it is not? How can this be a good thing for MS? (Based on their currrent way of thinking that is)
