Yep, Windows has been ditched after reliability was shown to be better under Linux.  So the American army is getting involved.

Now usually a big governmental order is good news for the seller, but in this case as it is the American army, replete with their unrivalled friendly fire skills, could this work in Microsoft's favour?  ;)

I'd imagine that using Linux would highlight the importance of co-operation, rather than Mickey$lop's habit of *TANGO*ing everything in sight...
