If Windows Server has ~50% of the overall server market and is trying to use that to support Azure it's a legitimate complaint.

What does the 50Z unit refer to? I have not come across the term

Sorry, I'm not sure how that typo slipped in.

That is big if though. Afaik even in Azure MS has said that majority of servers run Linux, and on other clouds I imagine Windows' market share is significantly smaller

Again, I am not talking about the cloud market. The overall server market is ~5x larger than cloud.
