Nah everyone is just confusing this all. Microsoft can't lose out for a long time as they have OEM desktop integration. OEM's can't go Linux yet and be taken seriously. However as Microsoft alienate all the pirates by making it more and more difficult to have a non-legit copy of Windows they force tech-savvy users onto Linux and hence it gets to a critical point in the balance where suddenly a lot of OEM's together realise that lots of people are using Linux and specifically Ubuntu and start pre-installing it. Thats when the scales really tip and Microsoft will be forced to allow people to easily run pirated versions of Windows again to try and recover. I always used to think it would settle into a nice little balance of M$ on the desktop and *nix on servers. Now I can see it going the other way.
