> You aren't going to have to sign up for a windows subscription when buying a new laptop. I think the majority of the consumers in the West will accept this and MS will continue to make a shit ton of money. It's just another subscription you add to the list along with netflix, spotify, mobile carrier subscription etc. > More people would adopt Linux. I hope this could be true, unfortunately they probably will buy a Chromebook if they don't like the hassle of a Windows subscription.
