$25 million+ Joint advertising venture between Unisys and Microsoft.

"Unix is expensive and bad!"

Someone noticed that their website was running a customized version of
Apache on FreeBSD Unix.

In response, Microsoft moved the site to Microsoft-IIS/5.0 on Windows 2000.
Apparently the dog food was bad.  A few hours later, the server was cracked
and site became unavailable.

Two days later it is back online, hosted in another location.

Sweet irony.  Sweet irony.
