For hardcore nerds like yourself there will still be Linux. I don't see it as an ominous development. And for old stick-in-the-mud people who never got into Linux like me, this could make doing stuff with a RPi much easier. (Edit: btw I'm using "hardcore nerd" as a compliment).


How would you use a ras pi with windows installed on it? I'm assuming windows 10 is going to have a decent CLI that you're all going to have to learn and pretty soon all the windows programmers who never had time to learn the Linux command line will have plenty of time to learn the new windows command line.


Probably will be PowerShell, which isn't bad. It's probably a good shell for teaching because it is fairly consistent in its conventions.


On an ARM processor I'd be surprised to see any kind of command shell at all. Certainly it wouldn't be the DOS based command window.
