MS will entirely "featurize" Linux as just another part of Windows, and thereby finally solve the problem of Linux on the desktop.

    No, it won't solve the problem.

    Microsoft remotely reboots your computer about once a week whether you want that or not. They only care about their updates. Your work has no value.

    On the other hand, I have a linux box that's been running for YEARS without a reboot. I work on it every day.

    If you value your time, your work, or your money, don't use Microsoft.

      The rebooting stuff is horrible; I completely agree. But MS has won the desktop and featurizing Linux means Linux devs will be able to write Windows apps and no one will care.
