You make a good point - it wouldn't be a landslide since Linux does form a comparatively small share of the market. However, with the hardware gating, might we not see more companies shifting, which could at least boost public knowledge of Linux?

The cost of switching over to Linux might be higher than simply getting newer hardware. Training people is pretty difficult lol
