Microsoft to support Linux
In a marked departure from its earlier stand, Microsoft has promised to add Linux support for the first time in one of its products. Microsoft's Server 2005 product will run on non-Windows machines, including Linux.
Microsoft had always rebuffed any requests for interoperability with products it didn't make, particularly Linux, an open-source giant, which it has long considered a threatening alternative.
