I think Microsoft understands that and thats why their product is in the state it is.
@Fizz @pennomi
Microsoft is going down.
Microsoft desktop share is sure but its still the default and they dont care about non business uses
@Fizz
Even they switch. Look at France, Germany, Europe.
Ok its still dominated by windows. I'm hoping the trend of switching to linux continues but I'm still realistic about the situation. Which is that windows is not losing a huge marketshare. They are still comfortably in the lead and growing in the areas they actually care about.
That, plus in the past there have been places in Europe switching to Linux and then switching back. It seems like many learned from that experience and they are following better plans to switch software over time (rather than replacing everything at once), but we'll see
I'm hoping euOS can come out with a full desktop, MDM and idp stack and give businesses an easy way into the enterprise linux environment.
