I see many for and against points towards Microsoft. I don't pay attention to Satya comments but I feel the same can be said for those as well. More importantly, why do you believe the opinion of the dev community towards Microsoft should be swayed one way or another?

If they do a good job at supporting development on all platforms, and their intentions are clear and any intrusive additions can be spotted and built out effectively, why should they not be commended for it?
