The colonel kept asking me why I didn't run
Windows: "but it's the most
popular operating system in the world!" Actually, I suspect Linux and
BSD in the guise of iOS/macOS is running on a lot more devices than
Windows at this point. I didn't bother pointing that out to him.
I'm told that Android (Linux?) outnumbers iOS (BSD?) quite heavily in the
mobile market; Win/CE (pronounced "wince") never really took off.
