Okay, I haven't found any confirmation of that quote, but since Mr Allchin has officially retired from Microsoft as of January 30 (Vista's debut), he is no longer a Microsoft employee and therefore free to indulge his impulse.
Boy, to go down as the man who gave birth to Vista and Windows Live... I'm not sure what to make of that as a legacy.

Noteworthy is a quote from his E-mail, wherein his fear of Linux is expressed as well.
"I must tell you everything in my soul tells me that we should do what I called plan (b) yesterday. We need a simple fast storage system. LH [Longhorn] is a pig and I don't see any solution to this problem. If we are to rise to the challenge of Linux and Apple, we need to start taking the lessons of 'scenario, simple, fast' to heart. Jim"
"People who work for Facebook / Xitter / Bytedance's Tiktok / Microsoft / Oracle / IBM / Apple / Uber / Lyft / Wolt / DoorDash / AirBnB / Bolt / and so on are doing some world-class projection when they have the audacity to call others Bad People(tm)"
It certainly does seem like they receive money from taxpayers for nothing, or for IBM to do mass layoffs/closure at Albany under the guise of "making a new spinoff"...
If the election is run by platforms that have back doors "baked-in" and if the communications are overseen by GAFAM, you would not have to be a "nutty MAGAt" to dispute the outcome
