Microsoft's own Linux-based operating system?

Well, it would be nice to see native support for file systems other than NTFS and FAT. Maybe that could happen.

Anything Microsoft makes, except its mice, is crap.

Well if they had a loonix-based OS I'm guessing they would have to support more. That would be nice. Loonix is, after all, an illegal hacking operating system that can recognize any OS.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

They are using the proper tool for the job... I'm so shocked and amazed, I can't believe it's happening.

But what's more amazing is the article that started the hype, the bombastic headline was "Microsoft created its own Linux."

Will make it more easy for MS to end up with Android for OS in the future.

I guess this explains why the Azure tech recruiters had recently been bugging me over my Linux sysadmin experience
