Why should MS parade its products on a conference named *Linux* Asia. Is it a conference like 'Computer Asia' or 'Technology Asia' or 'Software Asia' ? what products that MS exhibited there has relation to Linux. They are the first and biggest ones again Linux and what they are doing in a so called Linux Conf ? What interest does MS have in sponsoring a event which is all about something they think as their foremost threat to their future existence ?

And why should such things be displayed in a place which should have been all about Linux or at least something related to or connecting with Linux.
