It's flattering, in a way. In a make-me-kind-of-sick-to-my-stomach kind of
way, but still. Microsoft must be feeling threatened in some way by the
Linux community, or they wouldn't have felt the need to put up a public
rebuttal.  If Microsoft feels a need to try to debunk the Linux
phenomenon, then Linux must really be getting somewhere, n'est ce pas?

I do wonder about the benchmarks, though.  After having BSD, Linux, and
other Unix boxen running for a year or more without a reboot, while having
to reboot NT servers under less load...errr...more often, why aren't there
any benchmarks that show Linux to be better?  Or are they just hidden?
