I think they just have enough demand for interoperation between linux and azure (hyperv) that they are forced to support linux just to keep their users happy.  They can't avoid it, proven they can't defeat it, so they're only left to play nicely or eventually be

Also of note, I've never had real success with wine for anything other than diablo, but I really like using seamless mode under virtualbox.  I use that running 2 windoze systems (my work image and a personal with my old office), and it works quite slick across

I agree to some extent, I have tried lucidcharts, and eventually plan to move to that, though I cannot do nearly as detailed work in network diagrams as I do in visio with lucid. I also have a 1.5yr old issue with lucid that their layer import

Makes to much sense for them not to. The new ms is a changed animal. On Sep 17, 2015 11:59 PM, "Eric Oyen" wrote: > it was bound to happen sooner or later. perhaps they finally got a brain. > > -eric > > >

well, it took them long enough (like about 32 years). They tried for at least 15 of those years to put Linux out of the market (and it's still here). That is the funny thing about inevitability, you will always have to bow to it eventually. -eric On Sep 18, 2015, at 4:56 AM, Stephen

I doubt it. it does explain the code that MS has been contributing to Linux a little bit more. On Fri, Sep 18, 2015 at 10:03 AM, Michael Havens wrote: > or a joke. > > On Fri, Sep 18, 2015 at 12:27 PM, Keith Smith > wrote: > >> >> Perhaps it is a

I think a more interesting question is … what implications does this have on the (silly) legislation proposed that would make it illegal to tamper with device firmware? (The intent behind the legislation appears somewhat vague, but generally tied to legitimate security concerns.) This would
