@Rocket This is what you'd get if you were to move to just Linux; https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/init/main.c#n1525

At minimum, people would need to move to the systemd/Linux OS, or systemd for short.

>What really is the future market of windows though?
There is no real future market - microsoft has stuck onto computing like the parasite they are, using every possible illegal practice to keep it going, but the usage of windows keeps dropping.

>Most users will be very happy with something like chrome os.
ChromeOS is Gentoo GNU/Linux with the freedom removed.

>Outside of core gamers, who is running windows?
Business types that have been handcuffed into systems restricted by microsoft and their buddies and those who bought a computer or a laptop that came with windows is the primary used of windows.

>If Apple/Google made it so you could dock your phone/tablet and use it with a keyboard/mouse/monitor, wouldn't that just eliminate PCs for 90% of users?
Android (uses the kernel, Linux, but sucks as GNU is missing) already supports keyboards/mouses and some devices do HDMI or DP over USB-C, so you can use such devices like a PC, although such is unusable until you at least install Termux and GNU on that (Termux offers a Xorg client).

Most iOS devices support monitor output and a keyboard and mouse now (better buy all the dongles).
