I wonder if ZorinOS gathers runtime statistics and can tell if those new installees stick with Linux or switch to Windows or MacOS.

ZorinOS, Microsoft, AND Apple can all go fuck themselves.

Free, open-source will have a bigger market share after this dust settles

Zorin is FOSS.

The fact that there's a pro version where you can pay for support does not break the GPL licence.

FOSS does not mean everything must be free of charge. It just means the user can access the source code and modify/share it if they wish.

THIS is the year of the Linux desktop!
