The Impact of Operating Systems in Business and Market Share Trends

What market share? Business = Windows, and yes there are always hipsters who have to have a Mac and then run parallels or something because they need Windows apps anyway.
Yes, Mac has won something in recent years, but this is more of a “tu mas vu” effect (“have you seen what I can buy”). Apple has a nice ecosystem, I am certainly not a fanboy, far from it. Prices are ridiculous high, but machines do work very well. Chromebooks are interesting for certain things. And Linux, well, there are so many distros and choices. And they all work until people run into problems and then usually have to execute something on a command line and it stops there.
Most business software is also simply made for Windows. But many things are being replaced by web applications, so the need for Windows alone has become somewhat less, because this is often no longer necessary. But are you going to give your staff an (overpriced) MacBook or a Windows laptop? Then the choice is often made quickly enough.

Now there are plenty of things that I don’t use on a Windows system. If it were up to me I would just always use Linux, but unfortunately that is not always a choice. I have nothing against Windows, it has just become more stable over the years. About the onion, tastes differ of course. The “new” Windows right-click menus look nice… but if you’ve been used to the other for so long, well, you’ll just have to adapt. And yes, I know that you can bring back that old menu.

This also gives them a good idea, there must be something in there somewhere in terms of telemetry “how many people took this out” to give them an idea. Then they can simply put it in their store. MS will eventually switch to Windows as a service where you can pay something monthly or annually. Then this is a nice exercise to see “what is really needed”
