I give talks on Linux often and would have no problem fielding questions 
from knowledgable MS advocates.  If they identify a deficiency in Linux I 
would agree with them.  When I give a talk I will tell you about the 
downside as well as the upside.  I advocate informed choice - that is why 
I am against the MS monoculture.

As for giving away software they value - I'd like to see MS do that ;)
