Hi :)
My 'local' supermarket, part of a national and possibly international chain,
used to have an isle for magazines with 1 section for IT. Out of the 16
mags there used to be 2 devoted to Linux. Sadly, last week there there was
only 1 :( but a few gaps so i went in today hoping to see 2 again but still
only 1 :( still some gaps.
Then i noticed the sections on either side seem to have crept into the IT
section so it's gone from 2/16 about Linux to about 1/10. Not quite such a
bad drop as i had first feared. Then i noticed that 2 mags on the top shelf
were about Android and another mag was about smart-phones with 4 sections in
the mag to cover the 4 main types = they had Android as the number 1 best,
then iPhone, then Windows and finally blackberry. So, half the mag about
Linux, or 3/4 about unix-based platforms and only 1/4 about Windows.
So that added up to 3.5/10 mags about Linux platforms!! Nearly double on a
few weeks ago in a shrinking market!!
Oh of the remainder of the mags several were dedicated to Photoshop and a
few to iSomethings and some too generic to get down to specific OSes or even
platforms.
Amazing stuff!!
Regards from
Tom :)
