It's crazy how fast that day is coming though. Seriously wild how quickly things have changed for Linux and Gaming.

I don't think they have any kind of grasp on reality, so they still probably think they can't fail. Seeing them slowly implode is so much fun right now.

MSFT has relied on their vendor lock'n strategy for 30 years now. It is truly awesome to see their grip weaken. It's especially awesome to see all their free capital tied up in the AI war, so they have no money to throw around and enforce their market dominance.
