would not be the first time, it also made microsoft keep xp alive longer 
(and attempt to make win7 a more lean os, from what i understand it 
works nicely on atom based netbooks).

would not be the first time microsoft bends over backwards to keep linux 
out of a market. a local government just need to ponder out loud 
replacing their windows machines with linux to get a call from the local 
microsoft representative with a great deal...
