You think the average Windows user cares about security or updates? I've worked in IT for over a decade and I can tell you that the average person doesn't give a damn.

Doing nothing is a very real probability. PCs have very real competition as well. Buying a cheap Apple air is now a great alternative to Microsoft Windows for people scared of linux. M3 processor is great and the devices cheap.
