Windows Virtualization to Support Linux

The link above (or others like it) has been sent to me over a dozen times, this morning. I hadn't thought it particulary newsworthy and wasn't going to blog it at all. However; others evidently do, so here it is.

Steve Ballmer says Microsoft's virtualization technology will support Linux. Hardly a shock, that. Microsoft is not dumb, after all, and a virtualization technology that ignores such a large part of the market would flop for sure. Some folks see this as a big blow to Microsoft, but I don't. They're just accomodating reality. They probably wish they didn't have to, but that's life. Trust me on this: worse things have happened to MS. This is nothing.
