Windows is dominant because it comes pre-installed on nearly every PC on earth.

Linux doesn’t have that advantage.

And that’s the problem with LINUX.... it does not have a huge marketing or sales force the way Microsoft has.

Otherwise, they would work with every PC maker to have THEIR PRODUCT pre-installed as an alternative to Windows.

Linux has come a long way, but the only real desktop BASED OS of Unix that has any sort of market share is Mac OSX.

That isn’t going to change anytime soon, however the disaster that is windows 8 has and will continue to push more and more folks over to Mac.

I really think the damage Windows 8 debacle has done to has yet to be fully understood. I do not remotely expect Windows 10 to undo the damage.

But it does have the advantage of being free.
