WebKit isn't written in JavaScript. It's written in C++, so your earlier analogy doesn't make any sense.

(Disclaimer: I hate microsoft and their products and their shitty platforms)
Microsoft was very late to market with netbooks and they destroyed Linux distros there in short order.
I hope that the fact that embedded/mobile devices have much stronger backers (Google, Apple, etc) helps keep Microsoft out of the market.
But we'll see. :(
Larry Ellison was Steve Job's best friend, literally.
As long as you properly access resources (i.e. classloaders and not doing stupid shit), it's fine.
