Microsoft and Novell have made good on their 2006 interoperability pact. Microsoft and Novell jointly announced that Novell's SUSE Linux Enterprise has been optimized to run as an "enlightened" guest on Microsoft's Hyper-V hypervisor platform. Windows Server 2008 customers have been able to run as a virtualized guest on SUSE since last June, when SUSE became the first member of Microsoft's Server Virtualization Validation Program, which Novell has helped to fine-tune. Now SUSE is optimized to run on Microsoft's Hyper-V as well.

Welcome to the real world. You'll find it quite different from the world you dreamed of in your youth or learned about in college.
Sometimes sitting down with your enemy is the right choice for moving things forward. Sometimes you have to get dirty and play the game rather than shout from the sidelines. Sometimes you have to take one step back before you can take two steps forwards.
It's not easy, it's not fun and it's not got for your soul or karma and you certainly cannot keep you smug moral superiority, but often it's the pragmatically correct thing to do. There are times when you simply have to chose between taking the moral high ground and getting things done.
