| Both Linux and Mac are moving slowly up the graph at the expense of Windows.

| over-4% range in 2010.

| destination of CD installers for Ubuntu, probably the most prominent Linux
| distribution for desktops. Mark Shuttleworth, founder of Ubuntu creator
| Canonical, even visited the country to brief local folks on the desktop OS.
