LMAO , TIM..hahaha, but Microsoft has to do something to court those developers to Windows environment.. What better way than to.gather Ubuntu on board..this is to keep steamOS from gaining more traction along with Android. Dev environment to work within to keep Windows loaded instead of switch over to Linux instead for Developers..in Linux its easier to work on Android from the Linux environment

So much for running to Linux to escape Windows. Not that they own necessary code already.
Awesome news, hopefully Microsoft becomes more and more open to open-source development.
I am pleasantly surprised to see Microsoft support open source coding.
