He's just a little jealous. As I have just said to John..

Microsoft has already begun ridiculing the PS3 Linux. This is great news. It
means they feel threatened. The last time they reacted in this way it was
the OLPC project which made headlines. They also sent out their
analysts/shills such as Rob E. to spread FUD.

I would not surprise me if, out of deparation, Microsoft will consider a Cell
port of Windows. They'll call it Winnie-Cell. A Cell server will be WIMP.


Microsoft no longer feels the Linux pinch. 120 million PS3's (probably with
Linux which will have evolved a lot by then) by 2010 are nothing to sneeze
at. It's no pinch; it's a kick in the arse.
