I'm not sure what your question is
Are you saying there is less Linux user now than before windows 8? You would think it would be the other way around.

Every customer I have installed Windows 8 for has come right back in within a few weeks wanting 7 or even xp instead.

I think you're right, but it's going to be a problem for Linux. When people come back to buy hardware, they're going to be buying a lot more hybrid Win8 tablets, and nobody is going to be installing Linux on those. It's not going to be long before those hybrids, like surface, are going to be the norm. It's the best of both worlds. They're still pretty darned expensive, though.
You should have installed a 3rd party Start menu that bypasses Metro. If you do that, Win8 really is a superior OS to Win7 and definitely XP.

I don't see what's wrong with it.

Linux is 'other'... gg

I'd accept the W3Counter figures from your wikipedia link giving OS usage are roughly Windows 75%, Mac 17%, Android 6%, Other (Linux, Blackberry etc.) 2%.
Those are very different figs to the pie chart don't you think ?
Steven Vaughan-Nichols seems to have removed the Android OS and other mobile OS representation without saying so.
What else non-Windows has he omitted without mention i wonder ?

Not to be contrary but I usually install classic start off ninite.com. They still hate it.You should have installed a 3rd party Start menu that bypasses Metro. If you do that, Win8 really is a superior OS to Win7 and definitely XP.
I personally think it's more stable, but the customers sure seem to disagree.
