I doubt Microsoft will run out of steam, that would be dangerous to computing because it would cause many people to,stop buying computers. I would never buy an Apple computer and I have very little interest in tinkering with Linux or Chrome.
Ubuntu Linux didn’t need tinkering, I just wish there was more software and games for it.
Running Fedora distro and Firefox here.
I run windows 2000 in a virtual box on my iMac. Works great! Very zippy. Can’t remember the last time I fired it up though.
