In his mind, Windows works, Linux doesn't, and nothing and no-one can convince him otherwise. That sounds like a zealot to me, but maybe you had something else in mind.

    And claiming that it works is zealotry? Sounds like he does like Linux, that doesn't make him a Windows zealot. Apathetic is kinda Windows target demographic and the antithesis of zealotry

    What are you talking about?

    He doesn't like Linux, he specifically said he doesn't like Linux because it "doesn't work" in his opinion, because it takes additional setup time that his Windows systems don't take. He only likes Windows, and he likes it because it "just works". However, the reason it "just works" is because someone else did all the hard work setting it up for him, he's never had to set it up himself like he was attempting to do with Linux. He hates Linux, loves Windows, and the reason he loves Windows is because he's clueless on how much setup it actually takes. He's not apathetic, he's ignorant, and a zealot.

    Looks like I might have found a Linux zealot lol. "It just works for me is a totally rational and fair reason to prefer Windows. Zealotry requires irrational beliefs. Maybe he is but you've not laid out a convincing argument/story.

    Fwiw I prefer Linux but I'll use Windows everyday too. It has a lot of uses and most products are designed for it. It has it's places still. I'm certainly not zealous about Windows
