OSnews tells us, that Microsoft fears Linux more that Apple. And they mean the desktop market.
There are two reasons for that:
- According to Microsoft, Linux has a bigger market share on the desktop market than OS X. That sounds interesting, does it not.
- Linux is an open system, that can be adopted by anybody. Especially by hardware vendors that want to produce a plattform of their own. OS X is exclusively used by Apple, which is not a Microsoft customer anyway.

Update: Sad Day For Microsoft: 5,000 Laid Off, Earnings And Revenues Down
I said in my thoughts about Google's Chrome that I think Microsoft is a dying giant. I feel that I should justify such a bold statement.
First I want to mention that I see the above statement in the long-term. Of course Microsoft won't vanish tomorrow.
