That is being greedy and unwise. Once Linux fully works well like Microsoft wants with Windows that gives Microsoft the door for them to say "Well your system is fully interoperable with Windows already, we are coming out with a new version that breaks that functionality and you will no longer be able to use the system like you have been, why don't you just switch to Windows on all of your machines and save yourself the hassle". It will take a few years but Microsoft is in business for the long haul, they will feed Linux just enough to hang it.
- scscsc 17y agoI am not contesting that what you say is technically possible, but that would be a bad move from Microsoft considering they are threatened non-stop with anti-monopoly suits. Also, they don't need to change Windows, just the hypervisor. Though it would probably break other OSs too, not just Linux.
