They plan to create a Wmware inside Windows servers for integrate Unix services (Bind, Sendmail etc). They figured out that if you can run Unix services on Windows Servers, it's like having best of two worlds, ease of use and reliability. In other word, if they can't buy Unix like all others technologies they loved in the past, they will try to eat it by integration.

But LindowsOS(TM) (»www.lindows.com/) was not controlled by Microsoft, so it had to go. Since the only people that got confused between the two names were the people at Microsoft, they sued to kill it claiming that many people got confused.

That's been a day 1 feature of NT anyway - it shipped with a POSIX subsystem (admittedly lousy; it was there to fulfil checkoff-box procurement requirements more than to be useful). The current SFU is much better. |
