"So, which really is better for the desktop: Vista or Linux? I've been working with Vista since its beta days, and I started using Linux in the mid-90s. There may be other people who have worked with both more than I have, but there can't be many of them. Along the way, I've formed a strong opinion: Linux is the better of the two. But, now that Vista is on the brink of becoming widely available, I thought it was time to take a comprehensive look at how the two really compare. To do this, I decided to take one machine, install both of them on it, and then see what life was like with both operating systems on a completely even playing field."

That's about the most worrisome thing I've heard of since the thing about Microsoft patenting the human body.
(as a conduit for information, referring apparently to a university (MIT) project in wearable computing that communicated via electrical signals across the skin)
Well, that and their Java problem way back, Kerberos(wasn't it?), the way both Apple and Microsoft claim to have invented the latest feature that everyone else has had for YEARS...
