Why would your wife need to be convinced?

When my gf buys a new laptop she hands it to me and says:

Linux this

Mine Linuxes it herself and has strong distro preferences.

Because she still like the familiarity of Windows. She doesn't do anything specific to Windows, just doesn't want to leave it yet.

I thought it was your son's computer, not a shared one

Oh they aren't shared, he is holding out because he believes he'll have gaming issues; my wife on the other hand, just doesn't want to make the switch yet.

I probably could have phrased it better.

Edit: when I had said 'his last computer', meant that he just has one left on Windows.
