(http://www.businessweek.com/today.htm) While most of Bill Gates's
attention has been focused on his legal
battle with the Justice Dept., a stealthier enemy has snuck up behind
Microsoft (MSFT) and may be poised to strike it a body blow. The enemy
is Linux, the relatively new computer operating system that's a version
