Last I heard, Microsoft has about $20 billion USD in *cash* lying
around. They are far from bankrupt, but Linux may make a big dent in
their profits in the future (if it isn't already).

I think somebody should make an OS that runs both Linux and Windows progs.
I mean one that has full support for apps written for Windows and full
support for apps written for Linux - if its not in some way illegal of
course.

Then microsoft could go ka-boom and that'd be the end of it.

That's very very very very hard.

And possibly illegal.

To be able to run Windows binaries, well, you basically need to know
everything about Windows, and Microsoft doesn't tell us everything about
Windows.

There are 'compatibility layers' though which are kinda like emulators.
They don't work perfectly, however.

taken from linspire ( Lindows ) web page:

Is Linspire designed to run software written for Microsoft® Windows?
No. Linspire is designed to run stable, secure and affordable Linux
software. Fortunately, there are thousands of great Linux software programs
available to perform most any desktop computer task, and the amount and
quality of the software is advancing every day.

The interface of ReactOS looks... :¬/

I don't think I could work with that.

WINE will only get better though ^_^

Maybe this can be the future for you, if they will add Linux.

Maybe a idea to add the link, http://www.reactos.com/

This is a open source beta OS that runs same drivers as Windows does, but it
is to early yet.
