Linux is on a roll. After conquering the smartphone space, Android is now dominating the tablet space (http://www.muktware.com/2014/03/android-beats-ios-becomes-top-tablet-os-linux-rules/22051). According to a new study by Gartner, 'the tablet growth in 2013 was fueled by the low-end smaller screen tablet market (https://www.gartner.com/newsroom/id/2674215), and first time buyers; this led Android to become the No. 1 tablet operating system (OS), with 62 percent of the market.'"Also, everyone is buying tablets.(~200 million sold in 2013 vs ~115 million in 2012). Microsoft still only has 2% of the tablet market.
