More recently, Microsoft has issued statements about the "viral nature" of the 
GNU General Public License (GPL), which Open Source proponents purport to be 
FUD. Microsoft's statements are often directed at the GNU/Linux community in 
particular, to discourage widespread Linux adoption, which could hurt 
Microsoft's marketshare.

M$ FUD isn't working these days... in fact... having thought this out for a 
few days now... I'm beginning to think that what we see on the surface might 
just actually be true:  M$ may be *afraid* that if they don't play fair, and 
play soon, they might be in a near position of not being able to play at all. 
SuSE may have actually hit critical mass... and M$ may actually be 
recapitulating... ok... maybe I won't hold my breath or anything... and I'm 
still angry with  navell...  but who knows... time will tell.

hmm
