POSIX is everywhere (including in Gates and Jobs machines), it's not the domain of only *nix like operating systems at all. Most things I can do in Linux, I can also do in Winblows .. but I choose to avoid Winblows for other reasons. GNU tools are very important, I've ran GNUWin32 tools on Winblows forever.....
