It's BSD code in both examples. Given that the BSD license explicitly permits the sort of use in question, ripped off seems inaccurate.
Not that microsoft has never crossed any lines - even the naming of the Windows operating system seems morally dubious - but in this case I don't see any issue with what they've done.
