Wrong!
South America, Europe is making the move, many thousands of people around the world use Linux on the desktop. My entire family from Grandparents to children, Mom and Dad and Aunts and Uncles are now on Linux only desktop systems.

Linux had nothing to do with the dot com era. That was an era of idiots trying to sell services that didn't exist and with the technology of the time, couldn't exist. It was a bunch of people throwing money away. Very few if any of the businesses of the dot com era had a solid business plan let alone a viable sustainable product.

Linux at the time was barely even on the radar!
