I also do not get them. I think it has a lot to do with habits and the
fact that it's used "nearly everywhere" (e.g. at work). So people get
used to it and develop a dependency of Windows and all Redmond
products (same goes for Apple stuff or Android). I really do not know
how to get my friends/family away from those corporations besides
telling them that it's bad and offering help to break out of the
ecosystems. (They keep telling me "Windows is not that bad, it got
really good" and that it "just works" and looks cool). Crazy
world...solely the price of these products would drive me nuts.

Cheers!
