Docker Engine uses Linux Specific Kernel features so it cannot use Windows Kernel to run so, the Docker Engine creates a small Virtual Machine running Linux and utilizes its resources and Kernel. The Windows Docker Client uses the virtualized Docker Engine to build, run and manage Docker Containers out of the box. There is an application developed by the Boot2Docker Team called Boot2Docker which creates the virtual machine running a small Linux based on [Tiny Core Linux][1] made specifically to run [Docker][2] containers on Windows. It runs completely from RAM, weighs ~27MB and boots in ~5s (YMMV). So, until the Docker Engine for Windows is developed, we can only run Linux containers in our Windows Machine.
