Windows Everywhere
Linux is great software, but Windows is everywhere.
So what’s the thing customers like about Microsoft products? they’re not cheaper, they’re not better, they’re merely more nearly ubiquitous. Walk into your local Best Buy to look at a digital camera and the clerk will assume you have a Microsoft PC. Try it: go to any consumer electronics store and ask for the Linux software that goes with whatever they’re selling -you’ll get nowhere unless you’re a masochist who enjoys being condescended to by a snotty clerk.
