It's where all the growth is, and no MS tax.

Yeah, it's an Apple tax (or maybe a Google tax) instead. And I'm over-stating things a bit. But ARM CPUs are the only thing that have broken MS's (and Intel's) stranglehold on consumer computing. UNIX didn't do it. DESQview didn't do it. OS/2 didn't do it. Linux didn't do it. SteamOS didn't do it. ;-)

SJVN on Win8 adoption rate, etc., from last June - http://www.zdnet.com...-fail-7000016222/

Cheers,
Scott.

Seems like MS doesn't care even if you do. - (crazy) - Jan. 16, 2014, 09:32:36 AM EST

MS really, really don't care about Linux on PCs - (pwhysall) - (3) - Jan. 9, 2014, 06:29:41 PM EST
