Are Linux-Like Environments for Windows Really Required?

“Ever tried this query in Google: “Linux-like environment for Windows” with inverted commas? If you have, it gives exactly 13700 results. Now try the same other way around. Google “Windows environment for Linux” but don’t use the quotes from previous query. It yields approximately 1150 results. This clearly shows that there are numerous applications that simulate a Linux environment on Windows and vice versa. But are all these applications really required?”
