What a bunch of FUD. This ranks right up there with "MS hires Linus". Dvorak is obviously a fool.
1. Secret project that makes Linux run smoothly under MSWind? Duh! coLinux is not a secret, and No, it wasn't shelved.
2. The idea is too complicated and convoluted. You're talking about cutting out HUGE sections of 2 OS's and pasting them together! It's possible, but I don't believe there would be any chance in hell they'd do it. The man power would be too much. Development of their current release would virtually come to a halt.
3. "Once the developers saw that happen they'd stop working on Linux and it would die. After all, who wants to do free work that benefits Microsoft?". This one is so dumb I'm speechless. Have you seen how many people contribute to the MS Wix Installer?
MS Anti-Spyware program claims Firefox is a high security risk?
Has anyone seem this?

Can you say, monopolistic practices?
