9:26 AM - Linux market share around the world
Linux is primarily used for servers and embedded systems, but some users use it on the desktop. One website has compiled a list of numbers by region as well as the top twenty countries running Linux on the desktop.
Linux is most popular in Europe, but the #1 country running Linux is Cuba.
I am not surprised by the observation that the US is at .73% market share. I only know one person running Linux as their primary desktop OS. College students tend to do it more frequently and there was that brief period where netbooks ran it.
