Linux cannot "lose" as it is not a company.

As long as one person remains interested in it, it will live on.

And, on the contrary, Linux is picking up steam, in light of Microsoft's latest release/privacy invasion/extortion attempt.

I am in the internet industry. Compare the number of times that Apache falls over to the number of times that IIS falls over. Compare MySQL to MS SQL in that manner too. Compare ASP to PHP performance. Open Source solutions are more stable and reliable and that is the end of the matter. Microsoft can either adapt or go under.
