I dual-boot those, and same here. The education, basic office and home e-mail checker market probably accounts for well over half of PCs. None of those uses above what is given here (if you use Linux). I don't see why that 50% of the market doesn't switch now: it's much cheaper, there's no compatibility issues like gamers have and if you never change anything there's no problems with ease of use (not that I believe it's hard to do if you want to change something). |
The main reason schools don't change is that most of their software is windows based, and it would cost a lot of money to replace it with curriculum approved linux software.
