Open source advocate calls for Microsoft version of Linux 

Open source advocate calls for Microsoft version of Linux ( - Software - Operating systems, non-Windows ): "A lot of open source advocates like to rage against the machine at Microsoft, but when a former Microsoft Research employee says that Windows 7 won't stop Linux from market domination, that's an opinion to note. Keith Curtis, author of the book After the Software Wars, says just that. But he goes further. He thinks Microsoft and its customers would be better off if the company ditched Windows and instead built its own version of the Linux operating system."
