Tech-wise, this is earth-shattering news:
Microsoft and Canonical partner to bring Ubuntu to Windows 10
It’s the complete Ubuntu userspace, native, alongside Windows 10. Not emulation, not a VM, not HyperVisor. Native binaries.
Apple needs to seriously step up their MacOS game, immediately. I can’t be the only one who’s looked over some recent PC hardware, jealous of cost, design, features or whatever, but then walked away because a computer without POSIX-based GNU Coreutils was not a computer I could use for work. This announcement appears to change all of that.
I’m really looking forward to trying this, it feels like it’s been a long time since something really any really innovating, surprising technology was unveiled.
Amazing job Satya, this really is a completely new and different Microsoft.
You’re move Apple.
