Just for a laugh I typed in Linux, Mac, and Windows in Google to see how many searches were performed...The attachments ( see attachments )were surprising...Linux IS getting closer...???

Those results are for the number of pages in the Internet mentioning the terms not searches. Also a fair number of the results for "windows" are for the glass variety not the operating system.
