Reminds me of the following, which Rex posted to COLA quite recently:

http://www.open4success.org/public_html/Linux/song.html

He later had it entended to include Longhorn and Vista. It's somewhere in the
archives...


And there are also the Halloween memos, relocated to a new URL:

                The Halloween Documents

So there! Learn how Microsoft prepared the fight.

Best wishes,
