If you read the article you would have noticed that they are not revealing all of the windows source code.

What happened was actually a huge victory for Microsoft.

They had been ordered to reveal *all* of the source code because it had been established that their source code was the source of much of their anti-competitive practices.

Now they have agreed to reveal *tidbits* of source code that will assist developers with creating code that interacts more effectively with the OS.

I guarantee you're not seeing the source of the OS itself.

Not only did they not have to reveal their full source code.. but now they've give developers MORE REASONS TO DEVELOP FOR THE WINDOWS PLATFORM!

Yeah.. Bill Gates got rich by being stupid.
