Microsoft's challenge?

it's certainly one of them but is the challenge of a new generation using free software any different from the challenge of massive pirating of software in some regions? they're a dissertation subject for you....
Perhaps we just need to read Mike who says:
So the next time someone says "you can't compete with free" ask them why? Every company that's in business today competes with those who aim to undercut the price of their product -- and the situation is absolutely no different when it's free. It's just that people get blinded by the zero and forget that the absolute price is meaningless compared to the marginal cost.
