"Increase Linux's usage share, and we will see a greater share of Linux exploits and malware. Case in point: Mozilla Firefox."

Well, that is the main line a windows apologist would use. This does not make the main point invalid. Hospitals and such professional institutes can use a less known OS. Because what they mostly use is a dedicated crapy VB application. Yet, I think main problem here is not the OS but archaic Windows based Desktop applications.

I can offer one exit from this mess,

1- Switch all your apps to Browser only. 2- Use dumb terminals (dump windows OS and office if possible. too costly) 2- Use a cloud service or a browser based server application that has a web interface for your documentation needs.
