In 1.5 decades Windows went from nearly 70% to under 55% and is still dropping.
No wonder Microsoft is dumping staff (even entire teams) all over the world!

I use many linux systems to connect to internet, but they proxy to a windoze box. lol.
I wonder what the split is for non-connected systems?
And what are we calling a "system" here, just devices that have a usable user GUI, like Windoze, kde, gnome, etc?
If that GUI check is the test, then we can't discard Android devices.
With the last few posts about "linux", if "linux" is just the kernel piece, then I guess the "Linux" vs "Windows" argument means something different, it would be more like Linux kernel vs the Windoze kernel.
So to be fair, really need to define what "linux vs windows" means, at least for the debate.
