-- It's True About Slogan "Microsoft Love Linux"? --
These past few months, Microsoft wants to show that they love Linux with slogan "Microsoft Love Linux". Not just a slogan, Microsoft also released several proprietary projects and their closed source became free software project and open source or simply release it for GNU / Linux without turning it into open source, including .NET, Edge browser's Javascript engine (Chakra Core), as well as a new scene this week-SQL Server, and Debian based distro that they make themselves.
Until now, Microsoft seems very well and receive Linux. But is it really like that?
Not long ago, Microsoft registered its patent Continuum, until now this patent is still being processed. When you follow the Ubuntu development of convergence, then the Continuum of Microsoft are almost the same with him.
"Microsoft's patent seem to focus on hardware that provides a 'convergence' rather than abstraction software technology there .. "wrote Joey-Elijah Sneddon in OMG! Ubuntu !.
In fact, Ubuntu desktop convergence already had the idea long before the Continuum, although Ubuntu is not immediately executed.
In addition to its Ubuntu with Ubuntu Phone, the use of 'dock' is also used by Motorola with Atrix smartphones, ASUS PadFone, Continuity Apple, and so on.
From a thread on Reddit, the campaign "Microsoft is the first entity to apply 'convergence' 'by many media. Gutigen, one Redditor commented, "The problem is the mainstream media who think this is the idea of MS, even called Ubuntu inspired convergence of Continuum."
With the existence of such a campaign, there is a potential, Microsoft could use this patent to "tackle" the opponent, including Ubuntu.
On the day after the hoopla of news will be the presence of SQL Server for GNU / Linux, Microsoft extended the contract Wistron, which allows the hardware manufacturer from Taiwan is to use patents and technologies Microsoft in tablets, smartphones, e-readers, and other devices that use Android or ChromeOS.
In February, Acer is the latest Android OEMs who participated signed to use Microsoft's patents. Previously existing Samsung, Sony, Dell, and Asus.
The results were amazing from Microsoft patents to have been estimated by Bogdan Popa, a writer at Softpedia. Microsoft can earn $ 8 per Android device or $ 3 trillion per year just by patents. More and more companies are using patents to Microsoft, the Redmond-based company will be more earn money without having to bother moving the big toe.
So, what is Microsoft loves Linux? Whether it wants to tackle the patent play? The only time that can answer.
