It may take MS years, but they'd then at the bare minimum relegate all four to niche markets...I don't know how else to put it, and there is no other logical explanation for your continued spinning.

LMAO!

It'll happen. I'm surprised that you, being the resident MS shill, still doesn't know the effects of MS on the marketplace. That's the thing about we who use Linux, OSS, IBM, Novell, etc.. We're able to see the bigger picture and we know how powerful and how much clout MS carries.

The fact is that MS is still unrestrained in its power here. MS has enough clout to tighten the noose until their necks are crushed. They might not be able to kill them overnight, but these companies' deaths at the hands of MS will be along the lines of "Death of a Thousand Cuts."
