IIRC, this has been an MS strategy since the beginning.

I'm still annoyed that MS acquired subLOGIC...

As to scary, MS runs way too many power plants, airline databases, etc., etc. for any here to *not* be scared. Be very scared.

So if Linux does animation, and "The Simpsons" is animated, then why does MS run the nuclear plant where Homer works?
