OSDL CEO: Microsoft Has to Accept Linux

PenguinCandidate writes "The OSDL's Stuart Cohen has been in the news lately following a clandestine meeting with Microsoft about a dubiously independent TCO study; a study that has since been rejected by the OSDL. The idea of an independent Windows/Linux TCO comparison may be dead, but did Cohen have an additional card up his sleeve? In this interview, Cohen states that while he "awaits the reply from MS's Martin Taylor on the results of his internal investigation" into how an off-the-record meeting became public, he will continue to promote his belief that MS will eventually have to accept Linux as customer demand increases."

Funny little known fact. Microsoft runs Linux. My predecessor here at my job, left to go work for Microsofts Xbox division managing their Linux developer stations, because a lot of the Xbox developers wanted to develop on Linux (note: this wasn't MS developers wanted to run Linux but third party and so MS had to support it becuase they wanted the developers more than they wanted a pissing match.
