a 'microsoft vs linux discussion' link

I came to that link while browsing and it was so good I felt I had to
share it with someone. Two professors discussing how Linux might oust
Microsoft and how Microsoft can effectively contain Linux - a very
sensible article. They reached the conclusion that Microsoft won't be
ousted but they're reasoning is very interesting.
