Thanks Fabrice!
I will continue to evaluate the WSL as I now have it installed and it seems
to work. I think my strategy will be to try both the native windows version
and the Ubuntu version of my key applications and just see which one works
best for me. I installed XMing for X server and it seems to work well.
BR / Johan
