Re: Heck Freezes Over: Windows 2000 & NT Source Code Leaked!?!?
Heh. Looks like WINE may be getting a bit better soon
People keep saying this is the 'downfall of MS' Yeah.. right. More like the best time to buy stock  I'd like to. Maybe it'll prompt a whole bunch of patches a whole lot sooner. MS is probably going to have to redo the way they store passwords, and change a few other things.. as those can all be reversed with this. Overall, I'm not worried. I'm nicely secured behind a NAT'ing router and I update/patch regularly. I wonder if MS 'borrowed' any code from things. Maybe Windows will be better because of this  I believe all of the Windows API is in it.. so maybe programs can be optimized a bit more.
