Sure, Windows is more open than iOS. But you still have much more freedom with how it works with Linux.

Surface tablets are niche but SO much more useful than the app-restricted alternatives from samsung or apple. Nuke windows and stick your fav distro with a tablet frontend on there and it becomes an incredibly versatile little machine.

Reading comprehension, work on it.

The point from the get go was that Android tablets are too app restricted. Not about freedom to do what you want with the OS.

APP

RESTRICTION

And on that front, Linux doesn't beat windows.
