I have just read an article regarding a leaked memo about how M$'s anti-Linux campaign is backfiring,...

 

It seems that they feel that Linux supporters are "emotional" about our OS (no,... we're just emotional about yours) and that the attempts to bash it have in many cases backfired (M$ doublespeak for "uh-oh, we F__ed up" ). The memo focuses on using total costs as a reason why not to use Linux (of course their calculations never include forced upgrade costs into it,... how convenient). Additionally, it hints at maybe using big lawsuits to attack Linux developers who are utilizing tech that might infringe on M$ copyrights (although I bet that will backfire just as bad).

 

here is the link,...
