Bill Gates has jumped in to clarify "OS vs. GPL" surprisingly quickly after

Perhaps Lee can consider tracking down how much GLP lisenced software is
used in companies in close proximity to Microsoft. While Microsoft is not
going to be caught dead using it, there must be companies that are married
to Microsoft on one end, but happily use Linux on the other.
