These guys cannot possibly succumb to a vague threat from Microsoft.
Ubuntu: Shuttleworth's integrity doesn't allow him to.
Red Hat: Has an extreme responsibility to the Linux community to make sure that Linux stays correct because they are the big commercial boys.
Debian: These boys stand for free software. They might as well hang themselves if they sell out to MS.
...and with how lousy Vista is, we should make our move and make Linux into everything somebody could want; it's allllmost there. I'm not kidding when I say that every single client and friend of mine who "mistakenly" bought a Vista laptop or desktop has regretted it and wants XP. It's actually quite sad how a large company can destroy itself with such a trashed-out product when they really should know better. It's a sign of Microsoft's arrogance and a sign that things are severely wrong with the company when they crank out a product that nobody likes. It's just unfathomable to me they could make such a stupid move...

So, now's the chance to go for the jugular!
Buy Dell Linux boxes!
