Not cherry picking anything of course, the evidence is overwhelming, everywhere you look. Check the well respected Net Applications stats as well, which show Linux use has plateaued despite being less than 1%:

I’m sure this won’t stop you from your mission of pushing Linux on everyone, including those clearly not interested, though will it. But you go right ahead, the constant pushing of the product despite its obvious shortcomings compared to what folks are already using and comfortable with is actually one of the main reasons why so many are turned off by it.

“which show Linux use has plateaued despite being less than 1%”

But just a few post ago you were stating 1.34 as gospel? The evidence Ill look at is large OEM’s like Dell and HP starting to sell on the desktops. In the end if Linux ends up a 1,2,5, ro 10% I dont much care its always an available option.

“obvious shortcomings”

Back to the inferior foreign clone and not stolen US tech?
