Re: Godwin's law?

Given Windows 10 now includes Bash (Unix shell), with more and more Linux features / sub-sets of Linux distributions being attached to Windows sub systems, from likes of Ubuntu and Suse, not sure why you'd seem somewhat surprised that Linux gets mentioned on "Patch Tuesday'" postings.

Linux is today, a rock solid OS, and if you live in the browser like Firefox/Chrome, most people would be hard pressed to know/notice the underlying OS. I use multiple OSs, Windows 10, Windows 7, Linux Mint 18.1, and macOS Sierra/iOS and quite often of late, it's not until minimise the browser that I remember I started my work in Linux that morning.

The hardest thing is remembering where I saved a document, if I was in a rush, so you have to be fairly disciplined in that regard.
