Verily I say unto thee, that Roy Schestowitz spake thusly:

SUSE may rapidly turn into "Winix", certainly if Mono encroaches much
further. It already has "exclusive rights" under Microsoft's protection
racket (as far as MS are concerned) for various other forms of Windows
interoperability (Exchange/Evolution, OOXML/ODF, Virtualisation etc.),
so it's practically an MS product already.
Why bother developing ("Microsoft don't develop software, they buy
software"), when they can just groom their pet monkey and get it to code
the next Windows for them?
"Windows 2020, now based on UNIX technology, just like the Mac."
How novel(l).
