I used to be a Linux advocate once upon a time.
Then I had an Epiphany moment. Not all of us drive a Mercedes. Just because I do, does not mean the Mary has to, or Joe has to, or even Sven has to. They might be perfectly happy driving their Mazda, or their Ford or their Volvo.
Since then, I no longer advocate Linux for everybody. Just because I use Linux, and used UNIX since 1990 before Linux came along, Mary and Joe and Sven can use whatever they like to use whether that's MacOS or Windows or even (gasp) Linux.
