He seems to have a thing about China...he was quoted somewhere, I can't
remember where now, about security patches for open-source
software coming from"someone in China in the middle of the night...".
He's losing it; Linux is getting to him; they're losing server market
share; MS Enterprise salespeople are finding it tough to convince
clients that MS is the way to go when the internet is awash with MS
security exploits.
