Or switch everything around to C# or .NET and make it only playable on Windows 8.1. Same goes with Spigot. (Spigot is a modified vanilla Minecraft server with support for plugins, that Vanilla clients can still connect to. It also runs 10x better.) If some things change, it would be impossible. I guess I'm not very optimistic about Microsoft owning Minecraft.

C# and such would make the game much better...
Spigot is NOT for modding, it's an optimized Bukkit... Tech companies aren't run by idiots. If a business is going well, and they BUY it, they'd let it as it is, as them fucking with it may make it so they don't make money. You buy a company to make MORE money, not less and waste $2.5 bill... G'DAMN PEOPLE AREN'T STUPID!

*some
Those who spend $2.5 billion (or sign off on it) to acquire a company are in no way stupid. They have a lot of power and they wouldn't be able to gain this if they were stupid. Uh yeah. They won't waste that money. Completly illogical.

I just know microhard are going to ruin it. My prediction is that when it reaches 2.0, Microsoft will fire the old migrated devs and take control themselves, remove server hosting and host it all themselves and make it a paytoplay thing. Also, I'm expecting the pause menu to have ugly windows 8 style buttons.
Seriously though: In the Mojang FAQ about the purchase, they said something Like this: "Don't worry, Minecraft will still be available on all the platforms it us today: Windows, Mac OS X, Xbox, PS4, iOS and Android" Notice they didn't list the Linux version. Did they just forget it, or........................

there's a little thing you're forgetting called contracts and laws. microsoft wouldn't be able to fire the original mojang workers just because they want to change the game to something of their own style. If they have anything reasonably close to a contract, microsoft would have to find a legit reason for firing people. They can however hire others, but then there's leaders for the developement of minecraft that, again if the contract is worth anything, they wouldn't be able to hire people to just suddenly outrank them and take over
<-- The actual Minecraft server host

Java happens to allow for cross-platform operation. A jar that works on windows will work on mac and linux too (and anything else you can install java on).
