http://www.redherring.com/Article.aspx?a=22241&hed=Google+Comes+Clean+on+Microsoft+


A few excerts form the article:

"Google today officially confirmed what many analysts have been saying
for months: the Mountain View, California-based search leader is going
after the software market in direct competition with Microsoft"

"In a question and answer session with shareholders, one woman asked
Mr. Schmidt and Google co-founder Larry Page how they would avoid
becoming known as "the new Microsoft, and not in flattering terms."



Mr. Page added, "It's natural to be concerned about it… We're not the
same kind of company" as others out there, Mr. Page said. "Our
engineers all run Linux. It's free. You can hack on it. It's deep in
our DNA""
