This doesn't say much to me except reconfirming my opinion that Eric's ego is totally out of control. "Microsoft's worst nightmare"? Taking *personal* credit for getting "the Fortune 500" to buy in to Linux? All this on foot of a series of immensely tedious books which each strain their chosen metaphor well past its limit and a bunch of theories which are Just Plain Wrong in my opinion. The arrogance and Plain Rudeness of his reply to the recruiter (who, as has been hashed out on slashdot and elsewhere, isn't even a MS employee) is breathtaking.
