Yes, but that&#x27;s not explicitly mentioned in the article and is expected given that it&#x27;s targeting a specific platform. You could say the same of OSX.<p>fwiw I&#x27;ve been using various flavors of linux for years(CentOS&#x2F;Arch&#x2F;FreeBSD lately) for everything but a single dev laptop I keep Windows for testing&#x2F;native apps.<p>My comment wasn&#x27;t meant to be advocating Windows, let alone XP, I just thought it was funny.
