The fundamental abusiveness of the naming of this product isn't lost on people. Every time I see "Windows services for Linux" I know very well that it's just Microsoft doing what their public manipulation thing. I've actually heard this issue discussed by the Windows admins in my company, without them having first heard my own opinion on the matter. "Why didn't they name it 'Linux services for Windows', or something sane?" My Exchange/storage admin asked. "Because that would make sense", our other Windows admin says. The discussion moved on to how Microsoft was afraid of the very notion of a product name that made it clear that Linux was doing something useful on Windows. They had to make it seem that Windows was offering services to Linux, because Linux needed the help of Windows, not the other way around.
