Interesting that Microsoft are, at the same time, integrating Linux features into Windows and making .NET Core for Linux. I'm not sure if it's a joined-up strategy or separate parts of the company doing things independently?

The first is to draw devs away from OSX and onto Windows laptops and desktops.

the second is to get their .NET stuff into the cloud.

MS have always been about controlling the stack under their "total cost of ownership" pitch.

Why bet on one horse? They are just spreading the risk and cater to different needs.
