If Windows keeps making itself more and more impossible to use, eventually we'll have the Year of the Linux Desktop! Microslop will achieve in a few years what we couldn't in over 30!

Eventually, it won't even be that Linux is actually good now, it'll just be that every other option is unbelievably worse!

I've had this waking nightmare a few times, a world where people are still afraid of Linux even as Windows becomes utterly unusable, a world where people spend most of their time using Windows wrestling with its terminal and still refuse to use Linux because "you've gotta use the terminal way too much", which I think is unfortunately way more likely than "well, obviously everyone uses Linux! Why would you use Windows? Unless you want to spend all day fighting with your computer instead of being productive or having fun."
