Careful there M$...

Some people are under the impression that your innovative
platform might appear to mimic (some would go so far as to
insinuate blatant "copying"!) other much smaller companies that
have already proven to be extremely stable and secure by adopting
a Unix approach to their OS.
We all know that you're the only company capable of actually
building an entire OS from the ground up...

Hope you are being sarcastic

Because this comment is incorrect: "We all know that you're the only company capable of actually building an entire OS from the ground up..."

They never built DOS, the core of Windows 9x, nor did they build the NT code base from the ground up.

This wasn't quite the whole story ....

The inclusion of primary parts of SFU in the coming R2 release is actually interesting. The "product" might go away, but the technology doesn't. Blogged the details here:
