    I think someone had estimated recently that Linux has about 50 mil desktop users. I think that sounds like a lot… I’d personally put that number to about 10 mil tops. I think the higher number we’re seeing these days is related to Steam OS.

        Yeah, people are bad with big numbers. 50M sounds huge to us, but there’s 8.1B people in the world right now. 50M is a blip in comparison to that.
