Linux could seriously hurt Microsoft's future growth if it treads on
more of the software giants turf, according to Microsoft's chief

Works for SkyNet? Used to have a mother named Sarah who was blown away by a

Webcast from the Credit Suisse First Boston annual technology
conference in Scottsdale, Ariz.
