I don't think that MS needs much support in bringing themselves down. The way
that people at my work are looking at them at the moment... And my work sort
of runs on Windows stuff.
More and more linux and FreeBSD boxes keep popping up because things are much
simpler that way. May not be a trend, but it is interesting to witness.
Also more and more of my colleagues ask for copies of the MDK cd's (I can't
keep up!) and dump windows for most things (except their beloved games).
