This is good!
This is a wise move on the part of MS. It will enable those who wish to use Windows to run programs written in Python. Everyone should be able to run whatever program they want on whatever OS they choose even if that OS happens to be Windows. Operating a business is difficult enough without having your choices limited artificially by the fact that certain programs only run on certain OS's. MS should continue to open their platform to run programs written for other platforms AND open their applications to enable them to run on other platforms. And by open, I am not referring to opening source code, so before I have No_Ax lecturing me, I want to make that clear.
