Of course we don't know exactly which patents are involved, or what the terms of the transfer were. But my guess would be that the patents primarily involve hardware, and Microsoft is interested in covering its potential liabilities as it moves into the hardware market (though XBox, Homestation or whatever it turns out to be, UltimateTV, and various embedded systems). It's unlikely to be a move to shut down OpenGL, because, frankly, Microsoft no longer sees OpenGL as a threat in any of the markets Microsoft cares about.
