Lolno. The greatest problem for MS is to train the next generation of users. Think of your kids. What happens if people abandon ms and office en mass? Simply put, MS will be fucked on the pro market because people are not trained in windows and office.

They already aren't. Soo many office jobs require excel and directory management and the sort and a lot of people fresh out of school are completely clueless. They grow up with chrome books and phones where everything is locked down. They get into the office and have zero idea how to even do the basic operations on windows.
