Wink Linux Receives 20th Birthday Video From Microsoft


Quote:
The Linux kernel has received birthday wishes from an unexpected direction — a video animation from Microsoft. Quoting The H: 'The video picks up on the strained relationship between Microsoft and Linux by displaying the phrase "Microsoft Vs. Linux" and then showing Tux, the Linux mascot, turning his back on the offer of a birthday cake from Microsoft. After a brief outline of the history between Microsoft and Linux, the video ends with a conciliatory gesture: Tux accepts the birthday cake in his igloo and the video ends with "Happy Birthday" and the editing of the initial phrase to "Microsoft and Linux?' The Linux Foundation has more stuff celebrating the kernel's 20th birthday.

Yes, good, now Kiss and makeup ms and linux.

If MS and linux joins forces(Microlinux, sounds too cool), then Apple would be buried 100ft under.

There are too many reasons why MS MUST never be trusted.
