Where is the Linux desktop going?
,----[ Quote ]
| While I like the Linux desktop a lot, I don't
| pretend that it's that popular. That's why I
| found it fascinating that, despite everything
| Microsoft has been able to throw at it,
| desktop Linux still managed to claim 32% of
| the netbook market.
|
| And Microsoft has thrown everything but the
| kitchen sink at desktop Linux. For example,
| the Redmond giant has strong-armed vendors
| into not selling Linux-powered netbooks; lied
| about Linux sales; and all but gave XP Home
| away to keep vendors from including Linux
| instea. Despite all that, it seems, according
| to ABI Research, that desktop Linux has
| actually grown in the last year.
