@26:07 he says as a business he's considering Linux on his computers because of Windows privacy violations. It's great to hear someone with such a wide audience talking about using Linux.

I kinda doubt they'll fully migrate to Linux since they depend on many proprietary software tools that aren't available outside of Windows.

Yup, their business is doing hardware reviews, which involves benchmarks and whatnot on Windows. So at least those machines will stay Windows, and probably their editing machines.

They might convert a handful of other machines, but I doubt it'll be that many.

It would be nice to see Linux benchmarks for new hardware too. Love GN's content but I basically ignore his benchmarks as they're done on Windows. It shows the relative strengths of the hardware but not real world Linux performance.
