I thought Germany was famous for moving away from Microsoft. Seems odd Bavaria would move in the opposite direction. What's the background / reason for it?

The HQ of Microsoft Germany is in Munich.

Edit: Compare to LiMux[1] and the rumors about some deal with MS

The HQ was moved to Munich some years ago to prevent Limux from spreading. It got killed, and this is the next logical step for M$
