Microsoft's Five Stage of Linux Grief

,----[ Quote ]
| What company with hugely established infrastructure doesn't seek to 
| maintain the status quo when faced with a disruptive change? Microsoft's
| response to Linux and open source is like a textbook case of the five 
| stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance.

Is a Linux Civil War in the Making?

| So, here we are: Microsoft is making Linux partners. Microsoft is making 
| patent claims. Microsoft is trying to stir up controversy. But, as my 
| grandpa might have put it, "Microsoft is still bringing cards to a 
| horseshoes tournament." No matter how Microsoft tries to stack this 
| deck, Microsoft is not going to win.
