Here is a link to an article at ZDNet about Microsoft releasing 20,000 lines of code for Linux drivers support. It sounds like Microsoft wants to work with Linux on better hardware support.
DISCLAIMER: This is NOT intended to be a Windows -vs- Linux flame thread, so please, lets be cool, ok ? This is an attempt to see what everyone feels about a Windows/Linux collaboration. Can the two entities stay "themselves" yet collaborate "together" ?
I feel that it could be good thing, as long as they don't combine forces completely. And I know the OSes that they command are very different, but just what benefits would there be ? I hope it is a start of a "cease fire" regarding all the lawsuits, liscensing, etc., and that they can coexist a bit better.
What do you think about it ?
