Why Linux ... Scares the Bejesus Out of Microsoft pbs.org An excerpt: So Google is hot. These fresh-faced kids from Stanford have a good idea that's implemented well. And it is implemented on Linux, not NT, which worries the heck out of Microsoft. Ironically, Google is based in Stanford's William Gates building. "The only time I saw Bill Gates was at the building dedication," said Google founder Sergey Brin. "Gates was coming down the hall with the department chairman and he asked 'What operating system do you have running on all these PCs?' Well of course they were all running Linux, but the chairman kind of coughed and said the department used many different operating systems." Good luck.
