Extortion.

Gates never had any problem stealing software from others or infringing. Anything in his favor he can get away with is fair game in his book. He sees the momentum of Linux overtaking him and he's pulling out all the stops to subvert it any way he can. (I wouldn't be suprised in the slightest to find out that a good chunk of his code is copied directly from open source.)

He is the most clever extortionist in history.
