Nice. I think I get that reference.
Both arguments are true.
To be fair they also open source more recent products like... power shell. One could argue, they do it to increase their market share. But is it a market if everybody gives away his products for free?
In the end they are an organisation that has to feed its members and share holders. So no blind trust. But it's still nice that they share it.
