I know we've gone through the Ignore, stage and the laugh stage.

I'm just not sure if we are in the fight stage or if they've given up.

Obviously MS has decided to step up to the plate and acknowledge Linux, 
and is apparently validating it by wanting to be more compatible with 
it. Isn't that wonderful :)


I think we might have won, and just not realized it.

Isn't Microsoft doing deals like this, like a "coke blinked" moment?
