Microsoft has no right to be complaining about copyright violations to Slashdot or any other website. For years, Microsoft programmers have shamelessly ripped off pieces of Linux, the MacOS, and other great computer OS'es and applications. If anything, we should be posting source to Windows 2000, not a simple spec sheet. Sounds to me like M$ is merely looking for excuses to nail a Linux news site. Why don't they spend their time hunting down software pirates? Are we really that big of a threat? The answer: Yes.
