Yes, M$ owns Hotmail. They have a bunch of Windooze Servers, but AFAIK the
real work is done by FreeBSD machines. rumors say they tried to convert to
Windooze NT when they buyed Hotmail, Hotmail was down for a few days and
they went back to FreeBSD ;-))
I don't know if this is really true, but it would make sense.
