@corbin @kde I dunno, the details seem to be pretty solid in terms of internal goals and dreams, I don't think one can say Microsoft hasn't internally and even externally expressed this desire, and it's nothing new—they've been making such noises at least since Azure was announced, in part to appeal to investors by talking up cloud hype. But it's also true that Microsoft has a long, long tradition of promising the moon and barely reaching the treetops (see for example WinFS) so I wouldn't worry too much about it anytime too soon.

That being said I definitely run KDE both at work and at home, heh.
