Article is Backwards (Score 1)

I think this guy has the thing backwards, Microsoft should start writing code for linux, in line with the wheel metaphor, while linux is reinventing the wheel, that's because the linux community is building wheels for an airplane, while microsoft's wheel are ground bound. Therefore microsoft should jump off their little land buggy and write code for a safer, more efficent computer advancement. Microsoft's code is bogged down and not well designed for the kind of performance and stability that consumers want now that computers are more popular than ever.
Plus, people do write code to improve windows, but it's not really the same thing as no one has the source tarball to window's source code, so if microsoft won't give source code, why should anyone donate their own for them to use? With linux you give some, you get some back, with windows it would just be a blackhole void that sucks up people's time and code.
