| There is of course Linux, an operating system that enterprises are

| to the Linux desktop but they now have a clear choice between moving to
| Vista with its tight validation controls and Linux distributions without
| such controls from Vendors such as Red Hat and Novell, as well as
| freely available distributions such as Ubuntu.

| In fact, Microsoft's decision to try to nab Vista software pirates
| using spyware may be the best thing that ever happened to Linux and
| Mac OS X.
