Windows 10 Desktop with phone capabilities?

[Southgarden116]

My biggest question since day 1 I heard of the unified OS Windwos 10 is that will the desktop version of Windows 10 get phone capabilities like sending/receiving phone calls and messages like MacOS X has it? This would make them really look like one OS and it would be so practical. I wonder if anyone has information about that? I keep waiting for them to announce it. There is even a suggestion on user voice with an answer from Microsoft only saying thank you for the suggestion: https://windows.uservoice.com/forum...e-capabilities-on-windows-10-send-receive-cal

This was revealed back at one of the Windows 10 events earlier in the year. Yes, with the Skype integration in Windows 10, we should be able to send and receive audio/video calls and text messages.

I did a quick search and found this article on the Verge on the subject for ya...
