Please describe depression. And please ELI5.

Unless the work is only using a web browser, you need programs and stuff,

My employer is a sizeable tech firm that uses the Microsoft suite. The irony is that developers use WSL because the software they need are on Linux. We haven’t switched to Linux just because the IT department doesn’t know shit about managing a Linux fleet of devices. They haven’t bothered to get the training/certificates because Windows is the status quo for big corps. This will stay this way until the next gen of sys admins form the majority, I guess.

Same with South Asia. That’s how the independent resellers do it. The authorised resellers either mark up the price for the Windows license or sell without an OS for a reduced price.
