Actually, I see it a bit differently. People who see talk of adopting free software as a tactic for negotiating better prices from Microsoft are implicitly acknowledging that free software is good enough to make that threat credible. It's a compliment. A few years ago, nobody thought you could make Microsoft lower its prices by waving Linux around. This is a big change.
