Visual Studio runs on Linux, now MS joins Eclipse...the changes at Microsoft is too fast and dramatic, considering a while ago they're so hostile to the open source and Linux world at large. This indeed explains the saying: "if you can't beat them, you join them". I hope it's not too late for them, for me there is no way to get back to Windows environment for any kind of development. I suddenly realized that, Linux has won already, from Smart phones to the cloud servers, all the way.
