I think its more accurate to say he is indifferent. He will say that he wishes it was not so, but he does not care enough to actually condemn MS for doing it..
You, I, and others on this board are consistant in our opinios on the whole GPL, MS, source code and the chicoms, he is not..
Actually, I've seen him be consistant.
He consistantly backs Microsoft, no matter how unethical, immoral or traitorous their actions are.
Even those few times that he's "disagreed" with one of their actions, his critisism of them has been so mild as to be non-existant.
And he consistantly follows the Microsoft "GPL is evil" parade, even when it makes no sense to do so.
Basically, he's a pro-Microsoft shill, unable to see wrong in anything they do and howling about anything that might possibly take a nickel out of their pockets. It matters to him not one bit that many of Microsoft's actions have been anti-competative, un-American or illegal. It matters (to him) only that Microsoft wins.
