Mandriva won't pay Microsoft "protection money"

| It's not surprising that people were speculating about 
| Mandriva being the next on Microsoft's list given its 
| financial position but CEO, Francois Bancilhon has ruled

| So in conclusion from my ramblings, Mandriva would have nothing to gain while 
| everything to loose by signing such an agreement. 
| 
| By reading the speculations about this so far, it all seems like 99% FUD to 
| me while the only valid reasoning behind the speculations being the fact that 
| a few other vendors has already done so..
