For the education sector and software developer sector these numbers are already met and well exceeded. For the consumer desktop, yes, I think so. I think some big company other than Valve and Google will sell a Linux desktop machine, be it x86 or ARM. When most of the stuff consumers use is through the browser, OEMs clinging to Windows is not going to last forever.
And Lenovo, I saved $100 and the time to setup Ubuntu on my Thinkpad. But I’m picturing something that is Linux only and a major release like a Chromebook or the Steam Deck were/are.
I mean only Linux as the product is released with only Linux offered by the company, as in not a choice between Windows and Linux. Linux first by design.

Dell already offers some models with Ubuntu on them.

ideally, all devices should be open to choose any OS.
