Microsoft Should Use Android. Say what?

In his column for PC Magazine, John C. Dvorak has a suggestion for Microsoft about the poor sales of Windows Phone 7. He writes, “To fix this, Microsoft should bite the bullet and embrace Linux and should even take the Android OS, which is Open Source, and simply use it with various modifications.” Dvorak goes on to make a point of how Microsoft is scared about Open Source. He also states several times that he thinks Microsoft will pull the plug on Windows Phone 7.

I’ve read the column a couple of times, and I have to admit, I don’t get it.
