Linux is everywhere -- it's all around you.

My phone runs Linux, my Fire TV runs Linux, my Roku runs Linux,
my DNS server runs Linux, my NAS runs Linux, a couple of my
news servers run Linux...

About the only place Linux doesn't dominate is the ever-shrinking
desktop market.  But Linux still has more market share there than
Sam Adams has market share of beer.

Handheld gaming?  Linux.  Unless you buy that new Windows device,
which smart people are upgrading to SteamOS (Linux).

And where are you, Tony?  Lost in the 90's.
