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"
The oligarchy wants to gut the real press and replace media with slop and social control media (or social control media with slop in it, i.e. their own voices, mechanised)
They would delay until March or April if they wanted to, but then we can expect numbers exceeding 10,000 layoffs (Microsoft always low-balls the real figure/s)
The gaming division at Microsoft is a complete catastrophe, lots of money (debt) down the drain [...] Buying Activision was all about misleading shareholders or hiding the deep trouble/problems XBox was having
