This seems to be politics rearing its head and not so much about Microsoft.
There seems to be an underlying current that seems to point to a battle between those with a preference for Microsoft and those with a preference for Linux.
Linux lovers: "But it has to be secure."
Microsoft lovers: "Huh? But I like Word."
Linux lovers: "Yeah, Linux has all these great things to make it secure but Microsoft doesn't."
Microsoft lovers: "Huh? But I like Excel."
Linux lovers: "Well, I guess we could possibly use Microsoft code (wink, wink). We'll just write them a letter, get the source code, and we'll write our own secure stuff (wink, wink)."
(Microsoft tells them to go take a flying leap.)
Linux lovers: "Well, that's too bad. It looks like Microsoft isn't going to be secure. We can't use it. Boo hoo (wink, wink)."
