More like ignorant and think that IT stuff is for IT people. As one of
my clients told me, I don't WANT to learn how to fix it; I just want it
to work! When I explained the minimal requirements to keep Ubuntu secure
versus Windows, he said, "put Ubuntu on" and hasn't looked back since.

This became a particular concern in the 1990s, when Microsoft gained
market dominance in desktop operating systems and office suites

Microsoft software is targeted by virus writers
due to their desktop dominance,

-----

You argue that Market Share has nothing to do with anything, yet you post an
article citing market dominance as a major concern.
