They are running scartd, and it is causing them to lower the price of windows to almost what it is worth.
:-( Microsoft's worry over Linux is partly why they're pushing their TCPA legislation.  Microsoft doesn't want only to sell the OS on every server in the Internet, they want to write the OS on every server in the Internet.  They want every server  to support their proprietary, undisclosed protocols.

:evil: This is an issue of control more than an issue of money.
