I didn't do that at all. Linux is doing fine as a niche desktop, and my post doesn't say otherwise. The point is that it's going to stay niche in its present state. All the hundreds of millions of people currently not using Linux don't have a reason to use Linux, and will continue not having a reason. Whether or not this matters to you depends on how far you want Linux to go as a desktop operating system.
