They've been able to get away with this for a long time, but now with Linux growing ever more popular, do you think they'll last? I've been a happy Linux user for quite some time. The distro I use has a GUI that's better then Window's, and the performance is vastly better. The only reason I haven't completely switched is gaming support. What I have read from other gamers is the same thing. Now that Steam is finally showing support for Linux, do you think Windows will last?
Personally, I think it wont last another 10 years. (That is not a long time for Large Corporations Like Microsoft) Windows 8 completely ruined them. If they remake Windows 7 in a more XP style OS, then it will be better. Also, I will be switching to Linux in a matter of years, because the gaming support is improving greatly, as stated in this thread. Way better performance, and I could learn a thing or two coding.
