I don't know if any of you have seen them, but Microsoft ran a series of television commercials bashing Unix. They partnered up with Unisys and created a marketing campaign trying to draw people away from using Unix as their server platform, saying it was too difficult and didn't scale (!) and that the MS product was better. Unfortunately their geeks must have disagreed because the website that they set up to sell people on the idea was run on FreeBSD. Slashdot caught it and posted it (http://bsd.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/04/02/130234&mode=thread&tid=122) It was quickly and quietly changed. I assume people were fired. I imagine that since then they have been very explicit that all of their sites need to use their technology.
