Actually, Microsoft contributes to open source [1]. Including
to Linux kernel, with drivers [2]. I guess we should be thankful for
they spend they time and money helping the kernel.
Personally I don't care what they true intentions are, and
surely they only did this aiming on what any capitalist company would
do, but the fact is that helps Linux as a software.

Don't do that, please.
Defending MS for fun in a Linux mailing list won't get you anywhere.
You have a blog for posting your thoughts. Useless flamebait posts
should be motive enough for a ban. Don't even start, please.
If that's the case criticizing Microsoft for fun should be enough to
earn a ban. The snide comments on Microsoft's intentions are much worse
flame-baiting than clarification on Microsoft's real (admittedly minor)
contributions to the kernel.
Linux is not a religious cult.
Woah, guys stop this now. This started off starting asking whether
anybody here attended LinuxTag 2010 and not one person replied correctly
to the original post's question. Just stop this off-topic stuff here
please. :(
