It's more than 10 times Linux marketshare.

Lessee now.  I have 5 computers here.  Only one has Windows on it and it
spends most of it's time running Linux.  I have a tablet and a smart
phone.  Both run Android (Linux).  I have a TV, A/V receiver & Bluray
player, all running Linux.  I also have an Asus Eee PC (borrowed by a
friend) that runs Linux and even my WiFi access point runs Linux.  Also,
how do you get W8 is on 14% of computers, when the facts show
otherwise?  Windows 7 and XP are both used on many more computers.  In
fact, computer manufactures were claiming W8 was responsible for much of
the decline in computer sales.  Look at how well Nokia is doing since
switching to Windows Phone.  They went from industry leader to also ran.

BTW, did you hear the news item recently about how all the computers on
the International Space Station have all been converted to Linux.  Or
how just about all the top 500 supercomputers run Linux?  Or how most of
the servers on the Internet run Linux?  Or...
