[conspire] Microsoft Linux

[Texx]

I've been watching the animosity ease with the departure of Ballmer and
speculated that someday Microsoft would do a Linux distro.

A computerworld article today confirms this.

Many of windows problems are deep in the NT kernel.
There is already a windows subsystem under Linux.

Insiders are reporting a limited distribution of a Microsoft Linux kernel.

Crossover and wine have come short in the past, but that's because they
didn't have access to all the Microsoft internals.
With Microsoft actually joining in the Linux Dev efforts, these things are
getting fixed.

They also touched on MS opening up some patented code to opensource.
They also hit on the issue where Ms is pushing people to cloud based Is and
apps, so desktop qa has died off.

There is speculation of a windows12 with a full Linux kernel powering it.

Rick is going to have the last laugh and it's gonna be a corker!
