Numbers go down all the time. No need to panic, but it may be a reason to plan...
Because that number would be an inaccurate guess at best.
That laminate wood on electronics really defined an era didn't it?
This is wild to hear? What year(s) are we talking on these Asus laptops? Everything Asus I've bought has been rock solid, and I go out of my way to get their hardware. I haven't really bought any new systems or components in about 5 years though...
The residents need to work on an election that exempts anyone who doesn't come out against this bill from being in the government.
Well, considering it's damn near 100% of the environment, I'd say anyone who doesn't work with Windows isn't really an IT admin.
I've been looking for jobs to get started in Linux administration, and I gotta tell you, the handful of times I see it mentioned is as a single line in the footer of the job posting.
Pay for it twice actually, Microsoft charges you to install that spyware on your computer as well.
The things you mentioned probably aren't the problem. It's not hard or expensive to setup secure remote access for systems.

Seconding this. I put my mom's laptop on Mint because that was easier than supporting her on Windows. She freaking loves it because she's not constantly bring pestered to sign into accounts, and she has an easy way to get software and features added to her computer without needing to call me.
Yeah, I was going to add that application management is so much better in Mint than the Windows store has ever been. Winget works alright, but you gotta use powershell for it, so "90% of users will think your product is shit."

Not really. Most computers are sold off a shelf at a big box store, pre-configured and ready to go. The license for windows is flashed onto the hardware, so the staff doesn't really have a way to remove it from the computer.
