        @jastertdc Right now it's comparable to KDE's kate or gedit. Nothing fancy right now.

          @adiwan A simple text editor?

            @jastertdc Pretty much. I also exaggerated that's Visual Studio. But the general UI looks quite like current MSVC but very dumbed down. "Settings" for example just opens a new file to the config file of that code editor. I wouldn't say that's very usable at the moment but it looks pretty?

              @adiwan Microsoft is going so crazy. Next step release Microsoft Office for Linux.

                @jastertdc One of their first steps towards going bonkers was the addition of a Linux kernel module for Microsoft's virtual machine. A few months ago they did a thing with .NET. Also they included fairly recently MKV support to a Win10 snapshot.

                  @adiwan Microsoft + Linux will become a reality? I'm a little bit scared about it.

                    @jastertdc I predict that in 20 years we'll have a Windows-Linux-MacOS hybrid and we'll still have to wait for GNU Hurd.

                      @adiwan I tested all versions from diferents SOs, and I like mac because all looks beauty in this so. But for complex tasks I'm using ubuntu, I think it's better than os-x.

                        @jastertdc I used a bit of MacOSX at my university when they had some. It wasn't bad but it wasn't my taste but I kinda like how the main file system is organized by default. Although it is a bit more confusing on my iPod Touch as far as I can remember. For the most time I'm a KDE Debian user with a good focus on the terminal (yakuake). For gaming and drawing Windows is my OS of choice because there is barely another for my needs.

                          @adiwan Microsoft will be used as a console in the future. I also use Windows8 to play all games I have.  I like Ubuntu, XUbuntu the best distro I ever tried, but only to do hard jobs.

      @adiwan OK... It's more like a crappy editor at the moment and it's not really Visual Studio. But it's a step towards that.
