I hope that when MS starts charging monthly for Win 10 that more companies start porting their programs over to Linux and that Linux becomes more popular. Also that Linux will become more user friendly also.
Thanks, Mario, for expressing my very thought. We'll just have to take everything in it time. Right now, there are not enough Linux users to comprise the demand. As the cloud grows, that demand will increase. And, it is not only on account of the monthly fees, but concerns for privacy invasion. The word "create" means to make something new, not show the whole world what you're doing, as you are doing it.
There is hope. Examples: the desktop publishing program, Scribus, and a kind of hybrid DAW (some interesting similarities with SONY Acid, which I think is on the way out) called "Reaper." The studio is $60. I'm still evaluating.
MS likes to say individual user owned PCs are inefficient. That's not at all true. Funny how they change their tunes.
