I debated putting iPhone in instead of iOS, but iOS runs on more than just the iPhone, and does compare an operating system to other operating systems, instead of throwing a specific phone in there.

What I'm really curious about is how the now dead Microsoft is able to keep people from searching for Linux on google. I'm sure you guys will have some interesting theories.

Just as MS does not let HP or Dell sell Linux machines, they do not let
Google allow searches for the term "Linux". Easy. :)
