Sorry, but I don't find the source (Surur) to be completely reliable and haven't heard about this from any of the standard dependable sources. Windows Ten Forums would be up in arms if it were true, but I haven't seen any mention of it there. Larc

I'm waiting to /not/ be surprised when Microsoft supplants their NT kernel and goes to a Linux kernel with a Windows-like desktop, like Apple did back 16 years ago going from macOS to OS X. Microsoft's Azure services: based on Linux. https://www.wired.com/2015/09/micros...everyone-else/ Microsoft moved SQL Server to Linux https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micros..._distributions bash and Ubuntu lib support https://preview.tinyurl.com/ljw83rh Microsoft offers 3 flavors of Linux https://www.engadget.com/2017/05/11/...windows-store/ Microsoft finally a member of Open Source Initiative http://www.zdnet.com/article/microso...s-big-backers/ Is Windows 10 Conditioning Us for a Microsoft Linux OS? https://redmondmag.com/articles/2017...-us-linux.aspx Zim zim ala bim, the spirits are about to speak. They say Microsoft Linux will appear sometime around 2025 to 2028 (i.e., about two 6-year OS development cycles from the release of Windows 10).
