    I don’t think microsoft worrys that much about PCs they make their money in B2B where they profit from Lock-ins due to their vast ecosystem not because companys use windows for gaming.

      Very true. It’s similar to NVIDIA in that way. Their money comes from data centers, licensing, and B2B - not gaming GPUs. I’m speaking in the terms of Windows on traditional consumer desktops and their position in that space. I don’t mean to sound like one of the usual “MS is dead any day now” people, cause frankly they are wrong.

      They are beginning to lose that too though. People are fed up with Microsoft in the server space big time and admins all over the world are looking for corporate ways to ditch Ms successfully. MS license costs are expensive and people are finally realizing it’s not worth the cost for email and word.
