Hi folks,
Sharing the start of what has been a creatively interesting discussion on 
the  Debian list.
No idea where the person is in the world, but all  the stuff felt globally 
after cloudstrike was the motivation.  Here is 
part of the post.
What answer would you give?
Kare

crowdstrike makes news headlines, many Windows become blue screens

it is evident that many people around still use Windows


according to some statistics linux has only 4% desktop market, 73% for MS, 15% 
for MacOS

why free OS hasn't gained more share even after 30 years of development?
