Steve Ballmer, Microsoft CEO, loves Linux. He's fallen for it in a big way. Steve Ballmer called Linux a "Cancer" in the past, ranted about patent infringement, accused Linux programmers of ripping-off intellectual property, and penned a deal between rival Novell to sell Linux.

Ballmer loves Linux. When I read it, I felt myself slip a little into "Bizarro World".

I've never read such utter non-sense. In comparison Rob Enderle is a bastion of levelheaded reporting. We have a new alpha nut job in the business of MS shill reporting.

Easy now. I'll bet it was sacracm, too -- but you know, there is psychological truth to it.

I'm with r_a_trip here. I would vote for alpha nut job as opposed to sarcastic blogger.

I'm sorry, but after reading a few of his articles -- each one a head-scratcher -- I have to ask: Who is Ken Hess and does anyone take him seriously?
