that's the standard microsoft way

embrace (copy sudo), extend (add incompatible options), extinguish

I can say with 100% certainty that Microsoft is not going to extinguish sudo

This really goes to show that no matter how legitimate a viewpoint (Microsoft is into EEE), there are always people looking to pretty unintelligently bandwagon.

Yes, we know. Internet Explorer, yada yada. Beyond the ridiculousness of the notion of sudo specifically being a target for MS, the notion that MS, or any company of its size, is THAT single-minded, is absurd.
