I know this isn't directly Linux related...

However, it looks like MS is appearing to be playing OS market "Damage
Control" caused by their currently stagnating Windows ME2^H^H^H^Vista OS.

What does this mean for Linux? Well, the window of opportunity (pun not
entirely intended) for Linux to make strong inroads into Desktop acceptance
at the loss of marketshare to Microsoft due to Vista may decrease
significantly.
