- Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 14316 | Windows Experience Blog[^] Impressive, and very interesting! :-) Also, some guys have got X11 running on top of this shell. - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2204610/uow-cygwin-x.PNG[^] Now, that is cool :-)

Gratz! ;P Might finally run X11 application, out of curiosity! (hey, I heard there was nice SVG editors on Linux! might be worth it!!!)

Well you have Ubuntu running on Windows 10, and X11 running on Ubuntu, so now if someone gets Wine running on X11, then we can have Notepad running on Wine running on X11 running on Ubuntu running on Windows 10. Inception! :-D

I am very interested in this since I use linux and windows about 50% each. I'd like to see if performance is improved over the cygwin implementation as far as processing bash scripts.

Keep in mind that when you are on bash on Ubuntu, you cannot run Windows apps from there. You are essentially in an isolated sub-system.

Thanks. That would still be fine for most of my cygwin usage.

Apart from that, it's cortana, cortana, cortana. Mind you, the "Find my Desktop" looks interesting. No, wait--- it's at home in my computer room!

eh, wake me up when they've fixed windowsupdate, when the control panel and startmenu don't make me waaaait for them, and when they've actually got the control panel fully integrated. i don't know why these fluffy things you mention are even being worked on when core stuff (well, ok, top level UI stuff) is broken.

I think someone is gonna find a way to circumvent it. My take would be that Microsoft will release an Ubuntu cli command to launch UWPs.

Why are we talking about *nix running on Windows being cool? Netmanage Chameleon had this working smoothly around about 1992 on Windows 3.1. Cygwin has allowed this for years. And there are other locally compiled shells and utils: Native Win32 ports of some GNU utilities[^] In my view, there are no mission critical apps that require Linux (ubuntu or otherwise). And we have been able to run *nix on VMs sitting on Windows boxes for years. Am I just missing something or is it just having another way to do the same thing one more time 25 years after it was innovative?

It's mainly to allow folks to use Linux dev tools not ported to Windows yet.
