The fact that Vista is force fed to consumers is all that means.

Give it another ten years and Linux might crack 1%.

And you in a vista discussion group trying to force feed Linux to vista

users!! Get lost, and go use you linux software some where else! I'm tired

of the crap I see from you, and you 0.6% followers. So are others who love

vista in these groups, and just require some help for some issues, that can

be solved without put downs, from the likes of someone like you, and others

as I seen.

Oh Wow! Earth shattering news. Linux use is up. Just think in 10 years

they will have 0.7% of the PC's world wide. Better call your broker and

purchase some of that Linux stock. In 50 years, the stock just might hit

$1.00.

 

Now back to our regular scheduled programming.

 

Just FYI

If it doubles once more, it will crack 1%. And, if it keeps doubling

every year, in seven years, it will 128%. Did you study arithmetic in

school? When the IBM Selectric typewriter was king, the PCs, whatever

the OS, had a 0% share of the market. There was a time when New Yorkers

wondered if the city would ever be free of horse manure. The percentage

of "horseless carriages" was nil compared to the horse.

Not at all. I don't pretend to attempt the impossible. I don't, like MS,

control the hardware and large OEMs. All I can do is make suggestions.

You are free to take them or leave them. You are also free to ignore my

posts.

I think some type of Linux version is on a lot more PCs than that.

But, for general everyday use- most folks aren't ready to give up

XP. I have Ubuntu and PCLinuxOS (my favorite Linux) installed on

two different machines. But, most of the time, I'm using Vista and XP.

 

I will say, a year ago I would have thought that Vista's share would

be at least 20% by now. The numbers I've seen for Vista are not impressive

to me..... at all.

More than "up". It has DOUBLED.

Another Wintard who can't add or multiply. If Linux doubles every year,

in seven years, it will have 100% of the market.

Heh, you mean like people asking questions about the flaws in Vista and

no one knowing the solution?

Really? Maybe you need to grow up and accept the fact that most computer
