If this were the case, then perhaps a revision of the kernel license
may be needed?
I can see benifits of having some MS apps ported to linux for desktop
use
but the business model MS operates under a totally closed one, so that
open source as we know it might well be threatened if any challenge were
made on the GPL.
I would think MS needs to tread very carefully in light of DoJ concerns
regarding their business practices.
