Maybe because windows laptops are cheaper and don't need an internet
connection.

Not so. One of the reasons I'm considering Chrome Book is the much
lower price. You can buy cheap windows laptops but the spec is low & you
have to pay extra for word, excel etc.

?? No you don't. I suggest you look at Libre Office.

since just about the only reason most people buy Windows is to get Word
compatibility, if they go libre office they might as well install linux
from the get go.



No they buy Windows because that's what it came with... And they don't
know about any other options, except Apple.
