Currently there is  a poll on one of Microsoft web site:
http://channel9.msdn.com/

The poll is about the "best OS of all time".    Interestingly, after
142 votes,  Microsoft OSes are only at  around 70%.  OS X is at 11%,
Ubuntu  is at 4.2%, other  Linux distros are at 1.4%

I was a bit surprised:  I would have expected Microsoft numbers a bit
higher up considering the audience of that web site.  But it's nice to
see that Ubuntu got its own category in that poll, and is doing not
too badly considering.

One of the answer in that poll was Singularity, a non-window OS
project from Microsoft  I had never heard of before:
