Yeah the sad truth is that Windows XP, a 12 year old OS, has 20 times the market share on the desktop that linux has. [1]

I'm a linux user at home and at work (for everything except starcraft), but I don't feel the need to pretend otherwise.

But read that stat again. 20 times. For every linux user there are 20 windows xp users, and 35 windows 7 users.

This is not even that surprising. 12 yrs is nothing compared to the inhuman amount of time it would take to port it, and considering how much work into it in the first place(?).
