Microsoft sings a new tune on Linux

Microsoft executive Martin Taylor’s schedule is packed with meetings like the one in June when he met with representatives from French drugmaker Aventis in his Redmond, Wash. office. Aventis has tied together groups of computers running not Microsoft’s operating system but the freely available Linux. These high-performance clusters can analyze proteins at blazing speeds. “That’s great for Linux,” Taylor said cheerily, at the time.
