It's just what it is. There's no denying it. Your remark is rather funny for me. I am one of the Linux users who will never exchange 1 thousand of MS- Windows with a "little" Linux. In the past, i spent too much time in difficulties to make something working correctly with MS-Windows. I spent money in adding and adding extra power and memory to make it working. Fortunately today I am free to use the operating system i want. The future....., about the market you should look at Chinese and Russian place before any conclusions. Up to MS-Windows users to patch and develop in their "MS BOX".
