Everyone who's been wishing for Windows to crash and burn for the past few years of Windows 11 being a shitshow, and only doubling down on it now that Microsoft is showing any initiative in fixing it, are just silently admitting that the only way they can compete with something as jury-rigged together as Windows NT is if there's no competition to begin with.

It's a silent admit of defeat.

Windows will be relevant for the next couple decades at least. Its private sector dominance could vanish overnight but it would still be around due to its usage by the United States government.

in the nineties it was like OutlookExpress or Outlook still at POP3

That's an opinion shared by consumers and tier 1 IT retards. The old hats know Microsoft gained its foothold in the late 90s and 2000s and they are staying. Just the sheer stupidity of the average office worker keeps them from using any other OS. You ever try to explain how to shut down or restart a computer? These fucking people just look at you.

Then there's the infrastructure. In just a basic office of 300 people for a midsized organization you have an LDAP Domain with Microsoft AD and all of the infra associated with that, plus Microsoft servers which, through a combination of decades of use, are effectively in use by hundreds and controlled by maybe three people who know how to repair them and keep them usable by the rest of the company, and that's if you're lucky and kept old wizards around. Lots of places I know have more than a few black boxes that are running various flavors of Windows Server.

Then there's software built specifically to run on windows. Not just O365, which corporations buy on license with their operating system and Azure and servers, but all the software that vendors code specifically in languages and dependencies that require windows.

Dismantling that would take decades, and would serve no useful function other than to waste money. And no company wants to run to open source software for business line apps. Their servers may be Linux, but they run shit like RHEL where you can call some dipshit.

Windows is completely superior on the desktop, and all annoyances can be mitigated with far less pain than switching out the OS, suffering with inferior software and wasting your days cooonfiguring before the inevitable distrohop to restart he process all over again. A lot of mediocre people in tech run an alternative operating systems as an easy way to feel unique and differentiate themselves from the herd, only they’re like an alt-girl who dies her hair green to be unique, along with the thousands of other alt-girls.

I switched to mac last year and haven't thought about it since. Except when I have to use my windows work computer and remember why I left I guess lmao.

non-sequitur that only confirms OP's point

Windows 11 being so shit yet is the most usable and working OS out there just shows you how trash macOS and Lincuck is.
>>
>>108730239
macOS is not a competitor to neither Windows or Linux as it demands Apple's ARM hardware and Apple's ARM hardware only.
x86 is x86. Forever the king.

Reminder that according to the Epstein files, Bill got divorced because he fucked a Russian prostitute and gave his wife an STD and asked Jeffrey Epstein to help keep it a secret and sneak pills into her food, and then Epstein wrote a big paragraph about how he's sick of Bill Gates shit and how he's not a good friend.

Nigga wtf is jury-rigged do you mean jerry-rigged?

I don't know whether to feel satisfied or disheartened with how socially retarded and dweebish our tech overlord billionaires are. All that money and no way to actually attain prestige and chadness.
