Not a negative comment in the thread so far. That's amazing for something Microsoft, as anyone who's been around here can attest. There's a corner being turned here; time to buy MSFT?

I mean, it's been a big couple weeks of releases. Between Surface Studio, the new speech recognition results, Teams, and this VSCode update (barring the npm issue) they seem to be really hitting their stride, in a way that hasn't been seen in years. Just in time to start clawing back tons of market share from Apple, too.

But I'm sure 2017 will be the year of Linux on the desktop.

VSCode is very good, free but doesn't make $ for share holder.

But you should check out the redit thread on Windows 10.

My only complain is that they still don't allow mixing vertical and horizontal layout splits. That aside, VSCode is a quite good code editor.
Sure, if you wanna buy when $MSFT is the highest it's been since the dot com era. Right about five months ago would've been a good time, though.
