RE: Licensed under the GNU GPL

I believe it. Microsoft has always included GPL apps. It is not in their best interest anymore to advertise that they actually make money by selling apps licensed under the GPL.

There used to be a page of GPL'ed apps that were hosted on Microsoft servers, but since the story broke all of the links are down. I image that there are still internal developers that use the GNU toolset and probably a few kernel developers that use emacs.
