I do, and I'm a Unix person, even having contributed code to the Linux kernel and I've used Unix - Solaris, HP-UX, NeXTSTEP, Linux, Reliant Unix (Siemens), IRIX (SGI) since 1994.

It's just that over time I fond it more and more of a -useless - hassle to keep a VM with Linux on my desktop, and pure Linux desktop never was a question (for various reasons).

When I install git for windows and ConEmu64 I have a good terminal and a bash and the basic Unix command line tools. The IDE and node.js are the same anyway. I configure the IDE and git so that my projects only have one type of line endings (Unix).

I have zero Windows server experience since that is all Unix for me, but on the (developer) desktop I don't feel any need for Unix.
