What nonsense. Fifteen years ago, Windows did not exist. Love them or hate
them, part of MS's success is that they are ruthlessly good at figuring out
what users want and giving it to them (along with a whole lot of crap that
most users would much rather not have if they knew what it was, admittedly).
If the Linux world made a comparable effort to reach out to new users there
is no reason why Linux shouldn't also do brilliantly. People are much more
independently minded than you seem to think, if only they are given the
chance which in this case means offering them Linux in a form they can
relate to and find a use for. Bear in mind that outside our cosy little
world in the West, Microsoft is often seen as an insanely expensive American
hegemony which doesn't bode well for the Beast's future at all.
