I remember when Proton launched it was like magic playing games like Doom and Nier Automata straight from the Linux Steam client with excellent performance. I do not miss the days of having the Windows version of Steam installed separately.

False.
Sorry but Windows does have real strong arm in the corporate world.
First, those boomers do not want to learn Linux. It is a fact. They adopt newer Windows faster and do not even glance at anything else.
Second, corporate networks are tied closely with AD and Microsoft’s ecosystem (Office, cloud etc). Microsoft are selling those licenses like crazy.
Third, there is a reason why we hear rumors of Cloud Windows (365), that is for corporate uses.
Actually they usually don’t give a flying F about the OS, they care about the apps they used to get their jobs done. They care about Outlook, Word, Excel, etc.
Also, as someone who just finished 35 years in corporate America, I’ve done retraining of older employees at many multiple companies plenty of times, so your Ageist assumption is not correct.
And finally, again, I was just commenting about hardware sales and how gaming drives that, and how an OS rides piggyback on top of the hardware sales.
