Microsoft

Michael writes: As predicted earlier this week, Microsoft has announced that they will soon begin offering Linux versions of their most popular products. “We can no longer ignore the market penetration of Linux,” said CEO Steve Ballmer. “We hope this first step will show just how strongly we intend to support the Linux community.”

The first product for Linux will be a version of the popular Notepad text editor. “Linux users are constantly complaining about the lack of a good text editor,” said Ballmer. Microsoft’s next products for Linux will be versions of their most popular games: Minesweeper , Solitaire, and Blue Screen of Death.
