Well, times clearly changed but the end goal remains the same. I don't have data, however, from what I see/read, there is a tendency of developers/companies using .NET environments to just go for Azure. It looks like it comes as a big package, while it doesn't have to be like this, but hey, that's how it works especially in enterprise companies. How much does/did it cost to port .NET to mac/Linux? Compared to what you gain just by having a few customers in the cloud, maybe crumbs: provide a good dev environment, people will clearly opt for your cloud services.
