Just another piece of evidence - as if any more was needed - that MS knows where the future is. That future does not include Windows.

Everything else on the planet is already Unix-based. MacOS. iPhones. iPads. Android. Linux servers are already running everything. All phones are running Unix. You can run Linux and Android apps on Windows today. Unix runs on everything from mainframes to watches.
