MS constantly uses *nix variants, and Linux among them. That's not a show of weakness, or a lack of faith in their own software. their are a few cases where Linux is really the tool for the job, and everyone knows anyone saying differently is full of shit. I mean hell the Linux kernel is developed using bitkeeper a closed source proprietary code tracking system, not CVS or whatever the hell GNU has for that. almost no one (outside of the kernel development mailing lists) ever bitches about that. Programmers are at least half engineer, and engineers are nothing if not pragmatic.
