Yeah, great idea. Turn all of the comparatively efficient Linux
servers into Windows Server 2008 servers that all require another 4GB of
memory just to keep running, and frequent security updates to avoid
worms. That and they'd change from MySQL to MSSQL, which would make the
asset and data server pools even slower than they are now. Pay $400/mo
for even worse services.
Unless, of course, MS has a plan to fix all of Second Life's
longstanding issues and increase efficiency.

If so, any impact on OpenSim development?
I would like to think there would be a precedent of:
.Net & Mono == MS/LL server & OpenSim
How safe is OpenSim from potential legal threats?
(if MS did buy LL, and turned their sights on OS..)
