More than 20% of all desktop capable computers are running Linux

More than 20% of all desktop capable computers are running Linux
----------------------------------------------------------------

Strange thing but if you march in and out of businesses taking notes on what
kind of computing is needed by the business, the numbers become staggeringly
large for Linux.

For every desktop capable PC out there being used by staff some 20% or more
are running Linux.

Whethers its mail servers, web servers, intranets, ftp servers, storage
servers, etc, the count of around 20% of the total desktop PC count is
unmistakable.

If each PC has a staff member, then each mail server, web server etc
Linux PC is another staff member handling mail, handling sales brochures,
etc etc etc. In some companies like Google, the ratio is all in favor of
Linux, which why they make so much money. In samller and medium size
companies, it is possible to judge its potential by the number of Linux
server army beavering away delivering revenue and profit. The smaller that
number, the less likely that business is making real sustainable long term
money.

Pressing Linux servers into action and Linux desktops is the real strength
a business has to show for itself if its out there making money.

Linux "advocates" are absolutely desperate for higher user counts.

Too bad: the world has dismissed desktop Linux, with prejudice.

Windowps and appile are too risky to use in servers.
Windopws and appile funded trolls knows it and risk
exposing vulnerabilities that are easy to expoloit if they are ever
put to server roles.


Anyway have a look the original post troll and weep if you must.
It seems 20% of all desktop capable computers are running Linux now:

Assumption. You have no evidence of your claim as always.

You're speaking of servers and then somehow associate them to desktop
computers. Do you not see how you're purposely lying here?

You mention Google as a Linux-using enterprise except that Google
employees are routinely told to bring whatever machine they want to work
and it turns out to be a Mac in most cases. You also mention Linux
running mail servers but people are increasingly looking for
comprehensive, responsive and fully-featured servers which will take
full advantage of Outlook's capabilities. Those aren't Linux servers.

You mean yes they are! Read the original post. Around 20% of all
desktop capable PCs are running Linux of some kind and use of fake browser
stats can never detect it - but these Linux PCs are still there earning
revenue for businesses that use Linux servers - so you should read the

Actually you and "good ol' 7' are both wrong. Yes, Chromebooks and Macs
are seeing upticks in sales, but the numbers are still extremely strong
in the Windows installs.

Say linux is at most 2% these days on the desktop.
Chromebooks are somewhere around 1%.
To total those two and you still only have about 3% running linux on the
desktop. What most likely will happen going forward is that Chromebooks
will have a bigger share than linux on the desktop, and possibly by quite
a bit as education is sucking them up by the droves!

Desktop computing means doing personal/professional work with a
computer. Servers and so on (which Linux has a huge chunk) usually
sit unaided and untouched by human intervention for weeks and months
and more on end. They are certainly capable of desktop use - they just
aren't used for such.

The truth is, Linux is used for desktop operations by fewer than 1 out
of 50 people.
