well how many people actually buy a full copy of windows.very few. they run what comes with there pc until they buy a new pc in most cases. most of there pirate copy's are people who run older or custom rigs and would probably never buy it anyways. there bringing them in the fold with legit copy's. .
just not true i fix pcs on the side for people and most users dont give a crap whats on the box as long as it turns on and does what they what it to. meaning as long as pcs are bundled with windows your not going to see any large decrees in windows use..
most aaa games on linux that there is are simply done as a curtasy to the user base linux sales on aaa games would never recoup the cost of even porting it at this point in time. for low cost indie games the boosted sales is well worth it. thats not a stab at linux or anything its user base just does not make up enough sales.
