I wish you were right, but that growth does not appear fast nor steady.
0 to 1 percent: 22 years
1 to 2 percent: 8 years
2 to 3 percent: 2 years
3 to 4 percent: more unstable, but between 1 and 3 years
I would say it's an encouraging trend.
I had the opposite take as that guy. I already knew that Linux usage in desktops was growing, but I'm pleasantly surprised seeing the dramatic acceleration behind it! I'm being optimistic here, but we could reach the point that we start going up a percentage point in a matter of months in the next few years.
