I ditched Windows BTW.

      I think more than a “practical” advantage over Windows, Linux will improve his reputation. At least I hope that, rn it’s impossible for an average person to prefer Linux over Windows or other OSes

      I’m not so sure about that…

      If CAS’s work on a desktop-power processor goes according to plan, the reality might well be that, over the next few years, Microsoft software simply won’t flash onto any new hardware avialable to buy.

      There are already versions of Linux being used… My guess is - simply because they are the easy solution - they will be adopted.

      One of the attractive things about open source software is that it can be audited… And if the people are not happy with one open source operating system, they can always flash an alternative.
