A Linux distro from Microsoft? What an interesting idea. Not sure if that would be good or bad. A lot in the Microsoft culture would have to change for such a thing to be created in the true spirit of open source (which is NOT anti-profit, but anti- "control freak."). Ultimately, Microsoft will learn how to play with open source -- it will have to in order to survive as a software vendor -- but trying to dominating it won't ever be the right move.
