Linux is not pointless, in fact:
* Android is a form of Linux... as of the second quarter of 2013, it owns 79% of the market share in sales: www.gartner.com/newsroom/id/2573415
* Linux basically owns the super computers: www.top500.org/statistics/overtime/
* Most webservers (hard to guage, but 66.9% by this count: http://w3techs.com/technologies/overview...system/all ) run Linux.
* Steam now runs on Linux - subjectively, I'd say this is a statement of how Linux usage is growing.
* Auto install/update systems make linux maintainence far easier than windows, additionally, packages are normally smaller in size - so it's quicker too. Adware/Viruses... Huh? What?
* Subjectively, I'd say the UI is nicer too.
* Linux works very well, mr subjective :P
