Microsoft should consider producing "Windows for Linux". It could be their
own version of Wine, but it would be nearly 100% compatible with the latest
version of Windows. Microsoft could require that users have a retail copy of
Windows to make this work.

It's a win-win situation. Linux users could run nearly all of the available
Windows applications, and Microsoft would still make money selling Windows
licenses.
