Sure, desktop use is still a low number. But the desktop in today's world is just a niche market, where Windows has a good share.
In the rest of the computing world, Linux is miles ahead as the major player: The internet's infrastructure is 90-odd percent Linux; the mobile phone world is about 80 percent Linux (Android, Harmony, etc); the smart household-appliance world (you know, the smart fridges, dishwashers, washing machines, microwaves, etc) is almost 100 percent Linux.
In the totality of things, the desktop world is a miserable few percent. Almost negligible actually.
Incidentally, ZDNet's "fragmentation" excuse is bullshit. Just like "fragmentation of brands" on the roads is why nobody buys cars.
