I think you're wrong. Microsoft won't end support on a system over or around half the world's pc's run on.

They're just pulling a scare tactic right now. Before the security end date of win 10 is up, they'll announce continued support for another 2 years. They're just trying to push 11 and right now they're bluffing.

Imagine a company with the power to break half the worlds computers with a business decision.

If it does actually happen next year, I look forward to the probably 10% gain or better to Linux. Mint will probably get the lions share.
