Just want to advise everybody of a few things...

It's an interesting paper, alternates between being incredibly
insightful and incredibly ignorant.  It shows what lengths Microsoft
will go to in order to crush the competition.

However, I do not believe that it will have a significant effect on
the Open Source community since Open Source is not about market share, 
but is instead about software quality.

It is a quite interesting read to see Microsoft's mistaken impressions 
about how they can compete with Linux.  In reality, they cannot.
