Heh. So, no, it was always a Mac/Linux place and around 2019 is when the team grew large enough that some new hires asked if they could get a Windows machine.

That's when it was written down: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/www-gitlab-com/-/commit/3a47ffa6c1d2dba2a8918e806892a0dfe113a418 https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/www-gitlab-com/-/commit/3a47ff...
This was after the GitHub acquisition but I know for a fact there was one engineer who really wanted a Windows machine but IT was not interested in adding it to the fleet as we were already heavily Mac/Linux.
