I wonder if this also coincides with back-to-school with students getting their new laptops during the summer running Windows, as well as class software requirements requiring Windows. Lots of those students are definitely loading up steam on their laptop for the first time, adding more windows players, but not lowering the number of Linux players. Also everyone gets it - windows bad, Linux and gnu alternatives good, but for uni courses it's best to save the headache and just run windows for the software that needs it.

I fully agree but disagree at the same time. I think the better way to look at it is that now the end user has a choice. I grew up with emulation and the actual console, and appreciate both approaches. I have a snes, a CRT, as well as a flat screen tv with a scaler. I like being able to choose how I can experience it; like I said, I like both. While it may not be end user accurate, it's really cool knowing there's an option for people wanting those crisp pixels.
