Mesa like! You can say what you want about the guy but he is not stupid! (He is not very democratic either)
He knows that Microsoft probably is infested with back doors ordered by the FBI or CIA. In any case he cannot rule it out since it allready has been done with BSD.

This could mean a golden age for that Russian Linux system; what was it called again... Ah yes Mandriva!
Putin sure knows how to stay popular! He is even popular with me now :D :s
