A few years ago, I started noticing the amount of work and faith Sun put in the Free Software Comunity, helping out in the Mozilla, GNOME and Open Office projects, I kept and eye on them ever since.
Now I see that Sun’s CEO Jonathan Schwartz explaining how Sun handled it’s “dark days” and they saw the light, he had this to say on the Microsoft interview in Fortune, .
no amount of fear can stop the rise of free media, or free software (they are the same, after all). The community is vastly more innovative and powerful than a single company. And you will never turn back the clock on elementary school students and developing economies and aid agencies and fledgling universities - or the Fortune 500 - that have found value in the wisdom of the open source community. Open standards and open source software are literally changing the face of the planet - creating opportunity wherever the network can reach.
That’s not a genie any litigator I know can put back in a bottle.
kudos Jonathan.

It seems that Microsoft has finally accepted that the Free Software movement is a real threat. Microsoft has funded a world wide smut campaign.
Bill Gates “Mini-Me”, Bill Hilf had this to say to the Asian press:
Microsoft director out to ‘debunk mythology around open source’
Yes, I know you can’t expect anybody to believe that load of bollox ( except the average Microsoft Junky ), the response was swift and clear:
Reading between the lines with Bill Hilf: Microsoft must really be hurting
The Free Software movement has been growing every day, more and more people find there way to the “light-side”. We need more developers, that means we need to make more noise, Don’t be scared to contact your local soft-news journalist, your local Radio DJ and even your local religious leader ( “X God told me that free software is the way to go.” ), Tell them all about “Free Software” and it’s avantages, let’s not stoop to their level.
The KDE team just put out a KDE 4.0 visual guide.
