I could understand that though..  I suppose I'd have to read up on this more,
because I'm surprised to hear about Microsoft's interest in Ubuntu, and I'm
wondering why that distribution specifically (maybe because it's one of the
most popular, or the most popular)?

I did wonder about Microsoft's intentions when they started supporting Linux
more (I've heard of them releasing some version of Visual Studio and possibly
some other of their tools for Linux).
