:10 ways Microsoft could help Linux
10 ways Microsoft could help Linux
Apr 6, 2009, 22 :36 UTC (11 Talkback[s]) (5067 reads)

(Other stories by Jack Wallen)

"Within the last year, it came to the attention of the Linux community that Microsoft does in fact use code from open source software. And why not? Apache code could only make the Windows Server code better. I'm sure there's also code within the millions upon millions of lines of Windows code that could help Linux. But ultimately, shared code would allow these two operating systems to work better together. And that would give them the edge. Instead of fighting against one another, they could work together."
