"Coming soon... MS-Linux."  Of this there is little doubt.  Unfortunately it
will only run on XP boxes.

Coming soon... MS-Linux.  I doubt that Microsoft is running scared.  They
are
making smart moves to head off competition though.  Coming out with their

will do so with the next couple of years.
