"Linux was in use on 0.6% of PCs worldwide, according to Net

Wow, a mere, 0.6%! Same article, same link, but vista is this: Vista's
share has grown from 0.2% to 9.2% since the beginning of the year.

Need I same more, and I sure won't with you!!!

Take care, Robyn

A lot of people eat fast food. That doesn't make fast food a good thing
to eat.

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

You are off topic. Quit your trolling.

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.
