microsoft has never been known to take challanges lightly. So let me
two things out:signed
1.) TN plans to use SUSE but Novell has, as everybody knows, just
a
patents and support agreement with microsoft.
This means microsoft can try something sinister indirectly.
Yes, with them both together, you can expect the worst to happen anyday.

2.) Most of the TN home users do not have legal copies of microsoft
products, and I am sure microsoft knows this. What if they decide to
back, by using this fact? It could cause serious trouble to the stateand
goverment.
Its good if they do that. That will make people migrate to Linux and do
good to the nation and the world.

Any thoughts on the above two points? I would be glad to know your
Thanx

Yes I understand all that you are saying about my second point, perhaps I
should have been clearer. M$ may not "impose" its "rights", but instead
threaten to impose its "rights'. This will be like the classic blackmail M$
deals to competitors. Then it will be a battle of sense and will. However
it
may still escalate to a political issue.
