Hi All:

There has been some complaints that installing the Bash shell on to Windows 10 exposes Windows to possible intruder attacks. When looking closer at the articles claiming this, an desktop intruder must actually be in the room with the computer. If the article I read is actually claiming this is a threat, it is nothing more than the usual "click-bait" assuming their audience is too stupid. The truth is that if any tech has unfettered physical access to any computer that computer is compromised.

The next big advancement is actually installing Ubuntu into the Windows 10 environment. This coupling, given a series of performance tests, show this to be very successful:
