Those of us who have been using Linux around the the year 2000 will remember the April fool joke on Slashdot about running Linux alongside Windows. The often repeated mantra, first they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you and then you win. The main reason of this seamless integration happening between Linux and Windows is most probably the fact that developers or the "cool kids" going to MacOS by the droves. Like what people normally say, the enemy of your enemy is your friend. Only time will tell how many of the "developers" will come to Windows via the unthinkable Linux route, but correctly done Windows and Linux integration is a potent OS combination.
