They are heavily focused on the cloud. They recognized (correctly) that their time of living off revenues of Windows and Office were limited and thus they need to do other things as well. But yes, I am rather surprised at how well they are handling the change :).

I have the "cloud to my butt" plugin installed. It changes all occurrences of "the cloud" to "my butt".

So you opening sentence made me laugh, thanks!

The announcement of SQL Server for Linux is very interesting; the other year when they released an ODBC driver for Linux I thought it was a significant change but it would be interesting to know how many people actually used it.

Oddly the focus on The Cloud seems to be also matched by the focus on telemetry gathering etc. I will wait to see how it pans out.
