Micrososft: Linux Keeps Losing - NOT!

| Statements like this are getting old. The person that wrote this, and nothing
| more in commentary, shows ignorance to the fact that the only reason anyone
| is able to point a finger at Linux for IP issues is because - it’s Open
| Source! This article appeared in 2003, showing Microsoft’s first foray into
| Unix - licensing SCO - remember SCO? And remember the ruling in the SCO
| case? You see, the purchase by Microsoft was to shore up and gamble that SCO
| did own the IP claims against Linux. It also helped catapult the SCO stock
| at the time. We see today that it didn’t work. I just dare Microsoft and
| their army of lawyers to open source Windows software. Let’s then talk about
| IP!
