Obviously, this is the moment for a joke about this being a Linux User's
group mailing list and the lighthearted joy of Linux vs. the
heavyhearted horror of anything else, but, probably since I'm never
really joking, it doesn't go over well...

Doesn't MS support Linux for Windows now? Do they have an official
distro, or do you have to do a third party install (e.g. Ubuntu or
"vanilla" Debian)?
Windows Subsystem for Linux is a (well, two, technically) ways of
installing any number of discrete Linux distributions within the
Windows environment. Very nice, cleaner (mostly) than Cygwin. But it's
a very heavy solution to a problem easily solved with PowerShell.
