First read the story describing how Gates has chosen to reveal ALL the windows source code to the Chineese government.  

Gates  reveals Windows code to China

Then read the older story where Jim Allchin said that revealing all of the Windows source code would jeopardize national security.

Zero Cool:
Once the Chinese Goverment finds out about the numerous security vulnerabilities in windows they won't hesitate to opt for using another operating system. I'm surprised Gates even gave up the source code, I thought it was shoved so far up his ass that nobody was able to find it!

TheKnifeThrower:
It would be quite funny if someone leaked the source code to the public.

Fett101:
In China? I don't doubt it will.
