Linux may be fastest growing platform

I found an article where the CEO of the Linux Foundation claimed that Linux is the fastest growing platform. A recent study by the IDC suggests the same. The main reason for this is that Linux is organized around the browser doesn't have a desktop like Mac or PC. This is much easier for people working from portable devices.

I've never used Linux, and I don't have an iPhone or a BlackBerry, but this makes sense to me. If I get an iPhone or a Blackberry, I might check out Linux because I think it seems easier to use on a handheld device.
