I was curious what the Linux people think about Microsoft and any bad practices that most people should know about already?

    If as soon as it’s more profitable for it to not be they stop supporting it, then yes they were pretending.

      It’s not as if they are holding themselves up as supporting Free Software philosophies (as opposed to Open Source), so where’s the pretense?

      If somehow it ever makes strategic sense for them to stop making use of the open source model, yeah, they’ll stop. That doesn’t mean they were pretending.
