@GossiTheDogKevin Beaumont I had a completely mainstream client ask me to find them a new laptop that would run Linux without much fiddling. They then asked me to make sure that it didn't have a co-pilot key. They hate their numerous unasked for brushes with AI that much. I've not had a lot of clients move off Windows yet, but have a ton who are trying Libre Office. They hate that Microsoft felt it okay to charge them more for a forced feature they explicitly don't want.
