    For many is probably just the right opportunity to jump to apple. For older folk, they will keep using windows xp/vista. Microsoft offers little to no value over the alternatives.

    Most of us, tech savvy are already in linux we will probably just delete the Windows partition.

      I’ve recently gotten a couple (absolutely tech illiterate) friends and family to move to Linux. It’s finally there - it’s much easier to use than windows now.

      And if you don’t want to keep shelling out for new computers every few years, doubly so - Linux works fine on decade+ old hardware (and you can keep upgrading practically indefinitely to stay within security windows, so you barely ever need to actually buy new hardware)
