Linux is looking better and better.

If only I could get a penny for each time I hear or read that comment, I would be very rich right now. Meanwhile, after decades of hearing and reading the same comment, Linux is still at around 1% market share. So, go ahead and become part of the 1 percenters. ;)

Linux is still at around 1% market share.

It is true that mostly enthusiasts (like me and the other guy) tend to use Linux on the desktop, but everyone and his dog use it in embedded systems and server side.

In May 2014, W3Techs estimated that 67.5% of the top 10 million (according to Alexa) websites run some form of Unix, and Linux is used by at least 57.2% of all those websites which use Unix.
