"I work at a newspaper"
Which is another dying industry, in case you hadn't noticed.

I work at an R1 research institution. When I attend talks in EE and CS (i.e., the ones attended by the guys doing research for tomorrow's technology), I see essentially nothing but Linux and Mac notebooks. 3-4 years ago it was about 50-50 Linux and Windows, rarely a Mac.
I don't think Graham is disputing that there are a lot of Windows machines out there (in fact, I seem to remember the article explicitly acknowledging this). He's talking about tomorrow, not today.
I'll bet if someone had visited your newspaper 25 years ago they'd have seen CP/M or Wang systems.
