Looks like this article from Patently Apple got recycled:

Linux is now gaining ground like it’s driving a Bughatti.
It’s the use of cellphones that are driving the choices.

I find the hard to believe for desktop PCs. Big businesses will stick with Windows.

I guess I’m just stuck in the past. But if Windows ever goes away I’ll miss those wonderful Windows error messages. They kept me entertained for hours.

Windows releasing versions that don’t support fairly new hardware is not helping them any.

MS did it to themselves. I go back to the late 1970’s with an Apple II and the early 1980’s with the IBM PC. I have used many different computers and OS’s. The issue with MS is they have become too cumbersome, too many updates which do nothing to improve the function, just move around the location of features. All the while Apple has made it very easy to just use a computer.

It's funny (not) how these articles say "Computer" when they mean "Desktop computer" and they ignore "Server".
Linux totally owns the Server market -- Windows has a small share, and Apple is almost non-existent.
The Internet runs on Linux; everything else is almost neglitible. Period.
High-performance computers, supercomputers, etc. all run Linux. All. Period.
But for some reason, that's forgotten in headlines like this one.

Slowly my engineering software is going on the cloud. Some work on on any platform in any browser (OnShape). Just about anything else is available “on the cloud” so not any reason for OSs to get better.
I am still stuck with windows but it is nice having my spare laptops running linux in the office running the backups and email servers.

Sorry for the delay on this ping. I was on a road trip over the weekend without my computer.
