Last week: In Picture: Updated and Finally Presented About 10 Minutes Ago, Windows Market Share in Turkey Down to 10%

This afternoon:

Android (Linux) + ChromeOS (Gentoo-based OS) + GNU/Linux at around 50% combined

Summary: Even though Android does not mean freedom, it's noteworthy that Microsoft's share in operating systems (common carrier) decreases rapidly, weakening the company's position in the market
