You say that cloud computing is a "natural fit for unlicensed operating systems" What operating system does not have a license? As far as I know there are no operating systems built of of code available in the public domain. All operating systems have a licensing agreement of some sort, be it GNU, BSD or CDDL.
dude he made a product that millions of people bought. Nobody was forced to buy it, thats called a free market get over it. The market gave rise to open source as a result of microsoft's high price and contant crashing. It's not their fault that most people dont want to use more complicated software. If you hate microst simply dont buy their stuff and try to convince people you know to use open source software (pc bsd a good start, package handling goes a long way). Get a hobby or somthing perhaps take a economics class at a local community college.
