Small business owner. Consultant. I've been a Windows user and developer for 2 decades. I get immense value from my work station with Windows 10 on it (will update to Windows 11 soon) and I get immense value from my Office 365 Business subscription as well as my home one. Windows has a broad range of corporate tools that I haven't even gotten to the level where I have use of them, so for the time being, I don't see any disadvantage.
I can just work with client files as they all use Windows, I can use all my favorite development tools, I can play my favorite games. Contrary to what a lot of people seem to have experienced, all my Windows devices have been plug and play for the longest time. I can make pretty presentations in Powerpoint and just send them to customers. I can collaborate on Word documents with other people, get spell checked, have actually humane formatting (I'm looking at you OpenOffice, Libre)... anyway, I'm just listing benefits, I could go on for a long time.
What advantages would switching to Linux bring me at this point? I run all my servers on Linux and wouldn't switch that to Windows for ideological reasons.
