MS first used Akamai when they dropped off the net for a couple of days, because they screwed up their name servers. Since then Akamai seem to carrying more and more of their traffic, and apparently a lot of MS web servers are mistakenly taken to be running Apache/Linux because the client is actually talking to an Akamai server rathern than a Microsoft one.
At least MS realise they need professional help. Next up, though, they'll start boasting about the reliability of their web infrastructure....
