Hi :)

My 'local' supermarket, part of a national and possibly international chain, 
used to have an isle for magazines with 1 section for IT.  Out of the 16 
mags there used to be 2 devoted to Linux.  Sadly, last week there there was 
only 1 :(  but a few gaps so i went in today hoping to see 2 again but still 
only 1 :(  still some gaps.


Then i noticed the sections on either side seem to have crept into the IT 
section so it's gone from 2/16 about Linux to about 1/10.  Not quite such a 
bad drop as i had first feared.  Then i noticed that 2 mags on the top shelf 
were about Android and another mag was about smart-phones with 4 sections in 
the mag to cover the 4 main types = they had Android as the number 1 best, 
then iPhone, then Windows and finally blackberry.  So, half the mag about 
Linux, or 3/4 about unix-based platforms and only 1/4 about Windows.


So that added up to 3.5/10 mags about Linux platforms!!  Nearly double on a 
few weeks ago in a shrinking market!!

Oh of the remainder of the mags several were dedicated to Photoshop and a 
few to iSomethings and some too generic to get down to specific OSes or even 
platforms.


Amazing stuff!!

Tom :)
