Not enough has been made of the fact that Linux has not triumphed on the netbook, even at a lower price and pre-installed. The fact that people fully expect Windows, even just to browse Facebook and pick up their email, is absolutely telling in terms of the chance Linux has on any desktop any time soon, if ever. Doesn’t bode well for Apple or ChromeOS for that matter either. This is not about which is better. It’s about momentum, here known as installed userbase. And that is a huge advantage for Microsoft, and netbooks are the undisputable proof of it.
