Author Opinion : Sun Linux, Linux at IBM, How about Microsoft Linux ?

Since lots of article and news regarding Linux (or trend of Open Source)
crisscrossing on the internet.
Microsoft still remain (maybe ? I don't know !) to own the proprietary.
There is Sun Linux, Linux at IBM, Oracle's Linux, ..... how about Microsoft
Linux ?

What will you think if Microsoft take part in Linux to against trend of
Linux and Open source ?


Cheers,

MS will not get involved in Linux and has no need to. Do you think s/w
developers are going to rewrite their code for Linux when they haven't yet?
That would be like Chevy making a car to compete with their Corvette. Never
see it happening.

Microsoft will not use or get involved in GPLed code like Linux. BSD derived
code such as FreeBSD, is free and clear of restrictions on how that code
is used.

trying to get MS to make a certification test for this? or else just
crossposting for the sheer thrill?
