Linux may continue to gain favor as a server operating system, but for the
desktop, and in particular amongst Internet users, Linux is a washout. That's

that Linux operating systems have failed to gain any significant marketshare
either from Microsoft's Windows operating system or Apple's Mac OS, when it
comes to the open-source operating system's use by Web surfers.
