The ongoing war

After reading the following story, I could not help thinking that who is gonna win this battle for the IT market.

Attack on MS anti-spyware


Its a war between capitalism embodied by MS and socialism championed by FSF and Linux communities worldwide.

Are the MS haters right about creating a new world order? Personally I feel its certainly not good to have only one company commanding everything. But, so is the uncertainty without anyone in command. Its the pressure of MS that made Linux a much user friendly system today. Otherwise, the system would have always remained geeky. Because of the MS push, that the people are now taking that battle to its own courts. With Apple joining the foray with its impressive Mac Mini, I would say there is an interesting battle in the cards.
