I think msft building this kind of tooling around exciting tech like node gives node more credibility in a big enterprise type of shop...will only be a good thing for node,

Exactly. This is a play for the next tier of developers, which will mostly be enterprise, mostly use Windows, and be much larger.

Very true. See my comment about the informal poll at Build -- 70/80% of ppl were planning on deploying python & node in their shops. Biased a bit since it was a node/python talk, but otoh, it was a Windows/.Net conference...

And with JS average developers being potentially cheaper (at least in future) the enterprise might actually consider it.
