Don't be fooled, M$ wants to KILL LINUX!

Is it just me or does this pact between Microsoft and Novell not come as a surprise? We have seen the tactics and techniques Microsoft uses to devour it's perceived enemies.The pact is just another phase in the Microsoft's answer to the Linux question.

This is what we know so far. Microsoft funded SCO in their futile legal attempts against Linux using companies.One company in particular, Novell, was thrown in there as their "Ace in the hole". After they realized the SCO movement was going to fail (fail miserably) they pull their "ace". Or maybe a better term would be they have changed tactics. They buy Novell and have that nut job Steve Ballmer spew unfounded Intellectual Property propaganda. Why? How could M$ benefit from his rants? Reaction! He wanted to see how the Linux community would react so they could adjust their tactics once again.

If there is one thing we have learned about Microsoft is that they are very good at manipulation. With all the money in the world they can afford to be. They will not stop this game until they have won or die trying. Knowing what we know about M$ I know this pact with Novell will only have an intended negative affect on Linux. At least that is what M$ is betting on.

What's next for Bill and his crew? My prediction is more of the same. More FUD, more propaganda, more more more. I think they will attempt to buy more Linux companies which we the public will never read about. I'm sure they have already approached Red Hat and other Pro Linux companies with unknown results. I bet they already have their fingers in pie's we don't know about.
