Believe it or not MS actually has a legal plan to destroy apple and the Linux threat. Or so they say it is legal. They claim they will destroy Apple's dominance of the digital word and gaining back popuarity of OS X in one swoop. First they plan to attack the iPod, itunes, and itms. The article doesn't say exactly how but, it is top secret. Then they plan to attack Mac OS X Panther/Tiger. Now MS is saying longhorn in the first half of 2005. What would they have to cut to be able to launch it then? Then they get into how to destroy Linux. But, you can read it for yourself.

ast3r3x is probably right.

I don't think anyone here will be donning the tin foil hats any time soon.

First, Windows “Longhorn” will be made available to Windows users in the first half of 2005. Longhorn will be a fully secure operating system, impervious to worms, viruses, or trojan horse applications.

Exactly. You can verify the usefulness and validity of the entire story with that one sentence. YGTBFKM
