In the marketplace over the past several years, the Windows operating system is not vanquished by Mac OS and iOS from Apple, it is done by Linux and its mobile derivative, which means Android.

It happens against the backdrop in the mobile computing sphere that many past and current Apple fans have switched to or been contemplating Android.

And, in the desktop computing sphere, I for one need Linux more than Windows.

Everything said, Windows is not without its own merits and advantages. For instance, I quite like the Windows Aero desktop environment present in Windows 7 and so on.
