Don't know, don't care.  But I'm sure you or others could have found some

See, I use Unity on my Chromebook and don't think it sucks at all, or at

IOW, geeks.  And nothing wrong with that as long as you don't mind lack of
a commercial presence in meaningful way.

Linux on the desktop certainly is a failure.  It fails to attract more

Nope, not at all.  They have premium boxes built to THEIR specs by those
Chinese manufacturers.  That frees other Chinese manufacturers to produce
the crap.

Apple took the time and money to develop probably the best ecosystem
around their gear and they've found users interested in that.

"Linux" doesn't have any goal, but some companies would sure like to have
some profits and sales for their work with it.

You mean a 'mactard' that uses OSX, Linux, Windows 8/10, iOS, Android and
Windows Phone?  I'd say that makes me much more knowledgeable about the
comparisons of the various OS's.
