Please pardone the expression but they need to get their head out of their butts then. One of the reasons I choose to use Debian Linux is that they do not have any commercial interests. They do not support any causes besides free/opensource software so I can feel good about donating to Debian and know that my funds are not going to support something I have moral issues with. When I purchase a Microsoft product I am supporting many people with an adjenda to devide and konqueror and destrory other businesses that are under foot. Many of them had good products and were driven into bankrupsy by lawsuites (whether they one or not) brought on by Microsoft. In my opinion, Microsoft is one of the most ruthless and corrupt software manufactures in the business. How one can support them and still hold their head up is beyond me. Many people don't concider that though when they are purchasing a Microsoft Product. I don't hold it against them, it is as if they don't know any better or even know that their are other viable options out there.
Please remember that these are only my opinions and I encurage every one to "Get the (real) Facts".
