Steve Ballmer, Microsoft's generally upbeat chief executive officer,
publicly acknowledged this for the first time: "I'd put the Linux phenomenon
really as threat number one," he said.
har har har.
But seriously, it's unfortunate they see it as a "threat". What they should
be concerned with is all the big players (like Sun, IBM, SGI, etc..) getting
behind Linux and supporting it.
Hopefully it won't be too long before people like NVidia and ATi start
shipping Linux drivers with their products.
