Windows 10 comes with Ubuntu installed.
No, it doesn't. It comes with a portion of Ubuntu tools available for install through some backwards way (or at least it was a few months ago when I installed it). The bash console is probably not as good as PuTTY for SSH management, and that was the big highlight of the functionality for me - being able to manage my servers without pulling out another computer. It's better than nothing, but it is no where near good enough for me as a dev who works in Unix from development to production. I do use the bash console for some simple server management when I am away from my work machine, but I could not imagine it ever being a worthy replacement for iTerm2 (or any console on Windows, really, not just the Bash console)
