Exclusive: Microsoft working to port its applications to Linux at Paul Thurrott’s WinInfo. Let’s take a look at the angles.

Rift persists between Linux interface camps

… a raft of corporations today announced membership in the newly created Gnome Foundation that will control the interface. The companies include Sun Microsystems and Hewlett-Packard, both of which will gradually make Gnome the default interface for their versions of Unix.
