Funny? Nah, just realistic.

The "funny" thing is that we're not hearing anything from Caldera
about how M$ is trying to take on UNIX, but they'll stab Red
Hat in the back for trying to develop Enterprise products. No,
wait...that's sad.

Now, if I were doing PR for M$ I would have had the good sense to just
say "April Fools" and try to pass it off as a joke...
