It might. I just don't see any use in it. Says a former Linux advocate. Don't get me wrong, I'm writing this on a Debian stable machine, I'd never even think of using anything else for a daily driver and have been doing so for 25 years, but Windows users will be Windows users and I don't see any reason to adapt Linux to their needs. Or to that bundle of vague illusions that they believe to be what they need. The evolution of Windows has produced such a horrible, parasitic product that its' users don't see any other way now than to jump ship. They're mostly lost cases, IMO.
