Now to flip this over a bit, I wonder what the Linux mobile share is and the Linux embedded share is.
Not too many Windows CE devices around, and even some SCADA systems are moving to Linux.
Perhaps I'm biased, having used Linux on the desktop since late 1999/early 2000 or so.
- nthcolumn 9y agoMicrosoft make more money from Android than their awful Windows phones. Personally worked on SCADA systems for powers stations but never on windows, all DEC-Unix and Linux in fact how I got into linux in '97. My kids both nearly teenagers have known only Linux and Apple (except Windows at schools*). I recall also how many of those years were hailed as 'Year of the Linux Desktop'. Also 'Linux' desktop - please people don't forget all the work by unsung heroes on e.g. KDE and Gnome apps, package managers, Drake installers, Compiz and Beryl, getting winmodems working, nvidia drivers, goddamn pulseaudio,... you get my drift.
