"All too often the desktop operating system market is looked upon as some sort of epic struggle between Microsoft and Linux. This 'versus' mentality is fun to perpetuate, it is not helping anyone in the long run. Since it is clear that each party is going to be around for a long time, what is needed a bit of mannerly coexistence. While the name calling may persist, it is more important that efforts are made to enable the two operating systems to work together more efficiently than they do now."

When I read the phrase mannerly coexistence, I immediately thought of the StarTrek episode where the alien scorpion thingies took over human bodies and then claimed, "We only want peaceful coexistence."
Now you are claiming even the possibility is a complete fantasy. OK, you may well be right. But you need an illustration. I hope I've provided that.
