Linux bigger than Apple?

I found this to be interesting. It should not be controversial since it makes no
judgements about anything being better. Steve Ballmer of Microsoft gives Linux
the edge over Apple as their competition. In fact if you look at the graph it
looks like Linux is on more desktops worldwide at least as far as Microsoft is
concerned.

It is a good piece of information as it shows what their strategy will be. They
will be focusing on Linux and Windows pirates.

Interesting too is Apple's reaction to this, from the link
on that page:

ft_ceo_scoffs_at_mac_share_gains.html

At least Microsoft recognizes the value of being free of
charge while the Apple rep notices only the US market and
can't figure how Apple could be rated lower than Linux in
terms of desktops -- neither company, of course, seems to
understand much about the other type of freedom.
