We tried to tell them. Years ago, when Windows 10 came out, we tried to tell them all, and did they listen? LOL, no, they scoffed at us, laughed at us, mocked us, said "it'll be fine!", and "it'll be great!", and "it's not so bad!", and even tried to cancel us for warning people, and for promoting linux as an alternative. So what are they doing now, now that all the Microsoft chickens have come home to roost? They're panicking because all their data really does belong to Microsoft, and they're all so thoroughly entrenched with Windows that they can't even escape without wrecking their lives.

Fools.

I never even had Windows past XP. I've been using linux for 6 years now, and I've never looked back even once -- and every month there's one more reason I see to never put Windows on any computer I own.
