What? What are Microsoft doing for a decade after NVMe available to consumer grade motherboard?
Windows really is a toy of an OS. It continues to blow my mind that people want to use it as a server OS.
Although I do conceed UNIX has won the server room and Windows Servers are mostly about AD, SMB, IIS, Sharepoint, Dynamics, SQL Server.
Naturally some of those can be outsourced into Azure services that Microsoft will gladly provide.
Not being an OS from C to C as the main programming model.
And then on top, multiple levels of sandboxing, including virtualization of drivers and kernel modules.
Ah and RDP is much nicer than X Windows or VNC.
And which Linux exactly? Plus unless you're doing C or C++, most likely aren't using those APIs.
Anyway, the differences of bare metal servers don't matter in the days of cloud where the actual nature of the kernel running alongside a type 1 hypervisor hardly matters to userspace.
And billions spent and earned clearly shows where the moniker 'toy' doesn't apply.
BTW year of Linux Desktop when?

But they weren't ignoring NVMe entirely, they've got Rohan the intern working on it, and as soon as someone replies to his StackExchange questions he can start coding up the driver.
