The goals of the Free/Libre Open Source Software movements and the Corporate Captialist profit motive directly contradict each other. The goal of Capitalism is to enclose/monopolize.
I believe this whole 'M$ loves Linux' is a Trojan horse and we should always remain skeptical until the system changes.
The question is: what are M$'s angle(s) - in the long term?
I think the biggest one is ideology.
M$ will say there are some 'limits' as to what can be open sourced... But those limits will be limits imposed by the current Capitalist system, not the organic human limits. Intellectual Property is better termed 'Intellectual Monopoly', or even 'Intellectual Slavery'.
