According to the StatCounter, Linux on the desktop has continued to rise and remains above 4%, with this being the healthiest it's ever looked on the desktop.

    Honestly the desktop of the future is Chrome OS if we are being honest

          the younger generation is fed up with crappy cromebooks stuffed with even more spyware that they’re forced to use by their school.

      The future as in this will dominate some day or as in this will be the best some day? Cause only one seems reasonable to me.

      Chromos will definitely be big, but its limitations mean that it won’t definitely not be able to just take it over.

      And given that it relies on Linux apps to run non Android or web apps, AKA desktop apps, I’m quite happy if it grows—Linux development becomes encouraged.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
