A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

pretty much, though my understanding is they ended up making thier own "wine" that leverages hyper-v. Seems like they are still banking on thier own hypervisor. Can't say I blame them. no way MS hands thier ops to VMWare.
EDIT: Honestly, I would expect NT4/Server2000 based windows to be sunset within a decade in place of a linux kernel version that has a window manager developed in microsoft's signature style. A large number of newer UWP apps will port relatively easily if already written on .NET core and microsoft has indicated they are starting to think more like apple when it comes to some levels of compatibility.
