While I was trawling through Net Applications' operating system share trend data for the past 24 months, something struck me. June 08 marked a big month for Linux. The OS saw the largest increase in market share for the whole 2 year period - a growth of 0.12%.

That won't work. Imagine a discussion between gradma and the salesman:
"Well mam now you need to choose your operating system"
"What was that son?"
"Oh never mind, Windows will be fine for you."
My bet would be on education. Get them while they're young. Push Linux teaching in school and then when they grow up they'll probably want to use it on their own.
Maybe by then Adobe will release Photoshop for Linux so people can pirate it on Linux too.
