"the world" says "nobody uses linux" until you point out that THEY are using it in their phones and tablets. Then they go "Huh?"
Ah, let's not also forget it also runs a fair percentage of their WLAN boxes and Firewalls, not to mention the networking gear running it. Sad, but true..@work we have a boss who is a sphenisciphobe when it comes to OS related matters, he was directly responsible for the demise of our old Smoothwall firewall machines as they ran 'an OS that no-one supports' and replaced them with Draytek 'appliances' (which at that time ran...Linux and so does all the wireless gear we have waiting to be deployed). Our phone system? the old Cisco system was Linux based...the new one is (as far as I can tell) also Linux based.
I call him a sphenisciphobe, that's not totally fair as he hates all Unix or Unix-like OSes but it serves here as the most overt symptom of his asininity, needless to say he's also a big fan of Apple products, so whenever he pulls out his iWhatever (phone or tablet) the irony isn't lost on us.
