    I don’t really understand the argument of “people will use what ships.” I don’t think Linux is great at the out of box experience unless you count something more locked down. They great part about Linux is that it gives you a lot of control. These days you don’t need to know all the details of how to use that control but I think Linux will become much more popular in the semi tech savvy type crowd. It is already wildly popular in tech.

      Because that’s just how things are. Why do you think Google pays billions yearly to be the default search engine wherever they can?

      For the same reasons people don’t change their engines in their cars unless it’s needed. For the same reason people don’t install custom ROMs anymore. For the same reasons most people buy consoles instead of making their own computers.
