Anecdotally, more of my techy friends are at least entertaining the thought of switching to Linux when they never did before. Great job, Microsoft!

My 12yo learnt about Recall from some Youtube video and has now said they want to move to Linux. I'm not fully convinced it's possible though, I know they have some modding tools etc for indie games that seem to be Windows only. Let's see.

Dual boot! Lets you keep one foot in the Windows door in case you need anything in Windows. I also run a Windows VM (Winapps) for small programs that don't run well on Linux and also don't require much processing power

Why do you include the "dont require much processing power" part?
