Why would you want to?

Windows is for corporates putting spreadsheets in front of coin counters.

For everything else there is Linux (or FreeBSD), which is probably why Micro$oft is porting SQL server to it.

Are you being facetious? It seems like you are. I'm 99% sure you have to be, but some people do think and write like that.

Notably the cringeworthy second paragraph and substituting $ for s like this is Slashdot in the 00s.
