I think microsoft is well aware of this "issue". And they seems to be working towards it as proven by the recent Windows Subsystem for Linux https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/commandline/wsl/install_guide https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/commandline/wsl/install_gui... Microsoft will hopefully start throwing punch in that direction by trying to "win developers back" by increasing the POSIX compatibility layer. How long till we see a complete "homebrew" for windows ? If the POSIX subsystem is "good enough" we might see a shift towards microsoft.
