Almost everyone - from kids to grandparents.

Not just the IT and geeks and the hobbyist crowds.

Personally, I haven't even looked at Windows for a decade. In all that time, I've only ever used Linux.....for everything.

 

 

 

The jury's out on this one, ATM. We haven't decided yet, because none of the usual "markers" are present.....so please stop posting this everywhere (until a decision has been made one way or t'other). :nono:
