[Sussex] MS Security FUD aimed at Linux

There is an interesting article on Infoworld that MS will be launching a
PR campaign to make Linux sound like it has more security problems then
its own products:

I'm thinking this is a good idea, as they will announce that there is an
alternative to MS out there to all the businesses that have been stuck
with MS software and are unaware of Linux.

I doubt MS will make very big gains, perhaps many big losses.
