Ballmer Wants to "Stomp Linux" Using MS community

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the shiny-jackboots-look-good-on-steve dept.

StefMeister writes "According to this article on CNet, MS wants to fight Linux by using their community support (of course by community they mean the few guys they personally know and who make money using their MS knowledge). My favorite quote of the article is this one "Linux is not like Novell, it isn't going to run out of money--it started off bankrupt, in a way.""

    Linux will always be financially bankrupt.

    Microsoft will always be morally bankrupt.

    So, "in a way", hasn't Microsoft always been bankrupt?

    Hmmm...

    this comment complained about this story being essentially the same as this story
    and that this comment about this story was the same as this story

    And yet both get modded above 3 somehow.

    Maybe the key to getting modded up is repeating the same thing
