After more than 3 or 4 years we still waiting better Browser, Web Server etc. I do not expect from M$ learn someting from ZEND and put into ASP.NET or someting like that. Php was already opensourced. If M$ wants to steal someting, code already there. In worst scenario, because of windows user base and windows based income ZEND may degraded Linux support or we may see new options or performance enhancements for windows only. so We will see that... Don't be afraid, GPL licence was uber protection for us. And thats why M$ execs calls it 'cancer'. Theri EEE tactics does not work aginst GPL. And writing windows native applications with php under Visual Studio may be interesting... Regards Sancar
