There would be obvious benefits to doing that, it's been the case for years. Spending a billion dollars a year on kernel development (a general consensus of the cost of a general purpose OS kernel) is a drain on any business as well as an opportunity cost of what those programmers might otherwise be doing. But MS has a long history of NIH. Remember when they defined TCP as "Transport Control Protocol"? -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
