@Sliotar Sure. But 30 years ago, it was #Microsoft who approached the #OEMS. Now the #symbiosis is well and truly established.

"#Microsoft have created a lot of exposure by persuading #OEMs to pre-instal #windows".

Would you listen to yourself? OEMs have been pre-installing Windows for almost 30 years. OEMs don't need Microsoft
to persuade them, they pre-insall Windows because that's what sells.

There have been companies pre-installing Linux for years too. And, as they have no price advantage over vendors who sell Windows PCs, they cater to their niche audience of (self-supporting) true believers.

@Sliotar #Microsoft have created a lot of exposure by persuading #OEMs to pre-instal #Windows. Most newcomers to computers have never heard of #Linux, and think the only #choice is #Windows or #Apple.
But there are some companies pre-installing #Linux. #System76 #Entroware for example.

So #Apple/iCloud is reported to have two bugs in one day.

#Microsoft has a shitload of problems with #Azure these days.

When is someone or somebodies really smart going to take aspects of #Linux and sell it to #OEMs as part of a package they can't refuse? #System76 does this to some extent, yes? Don't they spec their own hardware?

The enthusiasts should do something that really gives #Wintel a run for its money. Some kind of support package using Linux backed by both personnel and tutorials.
