I've recently discovered cmder and it actually makes Windoze bearable to use. Of course I would never give up Linux if it were my own choice, buy work is work.

I've recently discovered cmder and it actually makes Windoze bearable to use. Of course I would never give up Linux if it were my own choice, buy work is work. So they've got an SSH client at last, but still no decent terminal, I suppose. I think the question is not whether someone would buy a MacBook because it has these tools built in but rather, why would someone buy Windoze given that it doesn't have these tools built in?

I really like the Windows 10 OpenSUSE terminal. Just install it from the Windows Store. OR you could install the Ubuntu Terminal. Either way they have replaced cmder for me.

  One thing you need to be careful with regarding WSL is that it still doesn't correctly handle umask[0]. There are some workarounds if you use particular terminals (for instance you can't use Mobaxterm as it forces 777 regardless) but it's not exactly 'it just works' yet.
