    That doesn’t make it right.

    And not everyone can dump Windows for Linux. We run a lot of software that requires Windows. Changing is impractical if not impossible.

      it’s becoming much much easier every year to switch to OSS alternatives or at least Linux compatible software. There’s basically nothing categorical that can’t run on Linux, even gaming is making tremendous strides.

        From a desktop standpoint, I agree. From a business server infrastructure standpoint, I disagree completely. We run tons of software that doesn’t run on Linux. Maybe there are alternatives, but there are other aspects in play (integrations with other services, vendor pricing, etc).

        It’s not just desktops that people worry about.
