Well, here is the thing, it would take WORK to break the ability to boot Linux and other OSes that they just don't want to spend.
Eh, pardon ?!?
They have all the code for VPC and of course they compile the app, so it's not too difficult a task for them to make sure that the PC only boots an M$ OS.
It's not like a real PC where M$ has no control over who can run what, it's more like Apple. M$ have full control over the "hardware", simple as that.
