Microsoft Linux Pro with a hefty annual fee
But doesn't run on Linux, only on MS windows 10
Lest someone think I am serious, this is a Joke (for the record)

I am pretty sure that they will offer a lot of "impruvements". Something like Registry for example
RE: microsoft joins the linux foundation - sparkz_alot - Nov-17-2016
It's not outside the realm of possibility that at some point they would offer a "pay for" enterprise version of linux, just like RHEL, SUSE, Ubuntu and others. If they do, it's also possible they might offer a "free" version, just like the aforementioned distros. Besides, if they felt that threatened, the Linux Foundation could have simply denied Microsoft's request to join. Sorry, don't see the big deal here.

Hmm! No big deal you say? When money talks everything is possible.
