Desktop market share moves very slowly. A 1% shift per year is a big move last I looked. ChromeOS is doing about as well as possible gaining share.

- unloco 4y agoChromeOS is only in the market because they have cheap laptops that schools bought up. And not a single student I know would ever use one outside of school.
- gehwartzen 4y agoWhich is kind of depressing. I get public schools have budgetary needs and I suppose Chromebooks are perfectly appropriate for Elementary and (maybe) Middle Schoolers (my kid has one, he's in 2nd grade and its fine) but they should really consider supplying real laptops to the High Schoolers so they learn on hardware and software used in the real world.
- TchoBeer 4y agocornering the market on educational computers is nothing to sneeze at.
