It is'nt there to make money for the devels. microsoft stipulated they drop
unity so they can more easily embed their cloud platform int ubuntu.. you
cannot make this crap up.. and I swear this was straight from the ceos mouth.

ubuntu is about to intergrate into (onedrive) or whatever their cloud services
is in the near future.

at first I thought it was cool that you could have a native bash cli under
windows 10 without an emulated environment. now to see what road the ceo is
traveling i'm not liking it one bit..

and i really don't see how this is even bordering on legal anymore.
