Windows power users have a hard time switching to Linux. But, boomers should have no problem.
I got tired of listening to my mom whinge every time a windows alert popped up for any smallest obnoxious reason. She's convinced every alert is a virus. So, I installed Ubuntu and I never hear a peep out of her because it doesn't go out of it's way to terrify old women into thinking something is broken.
Thanks Ubuntu. You saved my mom from being abandoned uncerimoniously at the old folk's home.

"Windows power users" are merely corporate drones stuck with what's handed to them. The same goes for US DoD personnel and support contractors. No intelligent thinking person with the tiniest mote of technical acuity would willfully chose to use Windows for anything other than a toy gaming console (the one thing it does well). It's inferior by design and regressing in leaps with each release iteration. The technically-proficient use Linux, the rest use Mac and Linux derivatives such as Chromebooks.
