Well,
not really the lastest news. Suse already respondet at the 11.05. (sorry  only
fond a german version: http://www.suse.de/de/news/hotnews/MS.html ) and the
OpenSource Community responded recently to this:
http://perens.com/Articles/StandTogether.html

But I like the link to the Unix vs NT site.

I think we should stay quite calm to this kind of Marketing because there is not
very much we can do about it. And the peolple who belive thisare hard to
convince about the opposite. They want to belive what MS tells them and they
what to waste their money.
For me it was a nice joke and I had a good laugh
