Looks like that article is a troll. The start is twisting reality without 
reference:

| As history has taught us, Microsoft finds it too risky to attack
| GNU/Linux directly.
[...]
| Microsoft prefers to use proxies and insiders to do their
| seemingly-independent jobs that accomplish long-term objectives.
|
| Examples include SCO (via BayStar), Andy Tanenbaum (via a book author),

The author makes it look like Andy Tanenbaum is a proxy for Microsoft to 
attack Linux, which is nonsense. Only in the comments one can find a weak 
explanation. Very bad style IMHO.
