I didn't think Linux was going to the the big thing but right now it is "winning" in the sense that it sucks the least.
I'm going to continue buying Chromebooks because I can wipe the OS and put Linux on them.
yep, easily the best netbooks are chromebooks without chrome.
i wish we’d see another pixelbook tho. my battery poofed and nothing on the market comes close.
ChromeOS is Linux.
The fact Linux folk prefer to count their market share at 2% rather than be associated with Chrome OS should tell you how far it went off track.
It is Linux but it really isn't Linux. It violates pretty much every philosophy of Linux
