Microsoft-funded Media Player to Become Ubuntu’s Default?

http://boycottnovell.com

Mono/.NET enthusiasts start pushing Novell's Banshee into the next Ubuntu
AS NOTED two posts ago, Microsoft is - in essence - paying the wages of a lot of Novell developers. What is the return on this Microsoft investment? Microsoft is neither a charity nor a promoter of GNU/Linux.
