Should they? I really don't know.
Will they? I believe they will - kind of. I think they'll make a Windows for cloud that is based on Linux. I think they'll still have the current Windows on the desktop stick around (at least for the now).
- loeg 5y agoWhy would they make a cloud Windows based on Linux? Who is the customer that wants whatever that is?
- jayd16 5y agoThey already run Linux machines in Azure because that's what we want, right? I could see them making a specific distro with custom features.
- comeonseriously 5y agoRight. I don't see why this is so far fetched. It gets MS/Windows branding/features on the machines, not some "other" Linux distro. Once people are using Windows only features, they can discontinue or raise prices or etc on the "other" linux distros.
- loeg 5y agoIt seems like you're talking about a Microsoft Cloud Linux distro, like Amazon Linux, rather than something related to Windows. Microsoft Linux makes sense, for similar reasons to Amazon Linux making sense. It doesn't relate to Windows, though.
