Gravis Ludus' Carl Williams writes, "Linux is, and will probably always be, a thorn in the side of Microsoft. There are plenty of variations of the free operating system that do a ton of different things. With that variety comes trouble in getting anything done unless you are quite adept at the command line (I will wait for the flame comments now). This is something that has always been a popular point for Windows- while some software gives weird error messages, for the most part, if it is a piece of software for Windows, it will more than likely run on the version of Windows you are running on your PC now. The same cannot be said for Linux, anyone that has tried to switch and install anything outside of the base software will be familiar with having to update obscure software that seemingly is not related in ANY way to the software you are trying to install now. This is affectionately known as “dependency hell” by people like me. As certain distributions such as Ubuntu and Fedora (I am a SuSE man myself) gain in popularity it is only fitting that Microsoft start looking at, the very least, those distributions for support of key MS software. Microsoft has shown support for their competitors in the past by releasing Office for Mac OS for instance."
