No one is going to “kill” anyone, but you can depend on the fact that Windows and Linux, in its various distros, are going to continue to coexist for years to come.
No single OS is the right solution for EVERY computing issue. I prefer Linux for number crunching apps and Windows for graphics intensive apps, but not all would agree with these choices.
I do wish IT journalists would get away from presenting a solution as a probable “killer” of some other operating system, device, etc. The markets will determine the winners!

It is not abput Ubuntu or other distribution it is about idustry which block Linux
in drivers and software development.
Loook e.e. at Adobe - they provide software for Windows and Mac [UNIX} environment but for Linux not and explanation about many distribution is just
cover conspiracy [Look at the software like Maya Pro Engineer and more serious software thy do not have any problem with linux distribution so Ubuntu, SuSE RH … . It is no problem Industry attitude is a problem
q: How Apple please Adobe to hold them form releasing they product ifor Linux?
and so on.
