And yet it is everywhere and will continue to be so.  Mac OS has eaten 
away at a lot of that in the last 20 years since Mac went intel - but 
Windows is still around 70% of desktops.

Linux, alas, has a fairly mediocre desktop environment and lacks support 
from key vendors for creatives (Photoshop, etc.) and productivity (MS 
Office).  Yes there are alternatives but they are not up to par.

Linux shines in database/servers, devices,(routers, and a hundred 
others) and so on.
