Figures needed for Linux growth
I would agree that the article should have presented figures showing the rise in the usage of Linux on the desktop. As this seems to be the major reason for writing the article in the first place it is important to state the facts. Otherwise the article should be 'Is Windows more vulnerable to viruses than Linux?' or something like that. I would say that the author needs to make the case that usage of Linus is increasing. Even if the information is available elsewhere as some posters have said, the article needs to present it, not rely on people finding it. This is especially true as there are differences in opinion about how to collect the figures and what they mean. The author needs to present the figures and show their interpretation.
I would be very happy to learn that more people are using Linux. I would like to see the figures. Could they be added to the article?
